Notes:• This comparison is done using the drawer’s total cash less the beginning cash.• This option only applies if you are using Cash Drawer Balancing (option 5419 isnot set to “Not Using”).• You can use both this excess cash warning and maximum cash lockout (entervalue in both options 9797 and 9798), or excess cash warning only (enter valuein option 9797 and set option 9798 to 0), or maximum cash lockout only (setoption 9797 to 0 and enter maximum in option 9798).• <strong>New</strong> option 9799 “Cash Drop Warning given to clerk (alert always issued).” This optiononly applies if you are using Cash Drawer Balancing (option 5419 is not set to NotUsing) and an amount greater than zero is entered in option 9797 “Cash Drawer –Cash Drop Warning Threshold.” A Cash Drawer Cash Drop Needed alert is alwaysgenerated when a cash drawer has reached the threshold entered in Option 9797. Thisalert continues to be generated until the drawer’s cash is below this minimum. Use thisoption to determine if the clerk receives a warning on their screen in POS that “the cashin their drawer is high and a cash drop should be done.” Set this option to Yes if youwant the system to both generate the alert and inform the clerk. Set to No if you onlywant the system to generate the alert.• You can configure options 9797, 9798, and 9799 (described above) in any of thefollowing ways to meet your needs:• You want managers to receive an alert when a cash drawer needs a Cash Drop,but don’t want the clerk to receive this warning, and don’t want to lock out aclerk from doing the next transaction no matter how much cash is in theirdrawer. Set option 9799 to N (only an alert to the manager), set 9797 to theamount of cash to trigger the “Cash Drop needed” alert, and set option 9798 to0.• You want to do same as above, except that you also want the clerk to receive thewarning that a Cash Drop is needed. Use the same setup as above, except setoption 9799 to Y (warning to clerk and manager).• You want the full impact of these options—that is, you want the manager andclerk to receive the warning that a Cash Drop is needed, and want the clerk tobe locked out from doing the next transaction if the warnings are ignored andthe cash in the drawer hits the maximum. Set option 9799 to Y (warning to clerkand manager), set option 9797 to the amount of cash to trigger the “Cash Dropneeded” alert to the manager and on-screen warning to the clerk, and set option9798 to the maximum amount of cash allowed in the drawer that triggers a clerklockout from creating transactions until a Cash Drop is done.• You don’t want any alerts or warnings for a Cash Drop, but if an unusually highcash transaction occurs, you want to lock out the clerk from doing the nexttransaction until a Cash Drop is done. Set option 9797 to 0 and set option 9798What’s <strong>New</strong> on Release 21.1--Eagle for the Aftermarket Page 9
