Pay In & Pay Out

Overview

The Pay In / Out screen lets managers and authorized staff record cash transactions that happen outside of normal check payments — such as adding a float to a drawer, removing cash for a deposit, or distributing tip-outs to employees. These transactions are tracked separately from check sales and appear in your end-of-shift financial reports.

Prerequisites

You must be logged in to the POS with a role that has permission to perform Pay In / Out transactions.
A manager PIN may be required to confirm transactions.

Navigating to Pay In / Out

Tap the Menu (≡) icon to open the side drawer.
Select Pay In / Out from the navigation menu.

The screen is titled Pay In / Out and displays a numeric keypad on the left and a segment control at the top.

Selecting the Transaction Type

Use the segment control at the top of the screen to choose the type of transaction:

Option	What it does
Employee Tip Out	Distribute tip money to a specific employee or Order Mode
Pay In	Record cash being added to the drawer (e.g., a starting float)
Pay Out	Record cash being removed from the drawer (e.g., a supply purchase or deposit)
Employee Cash In	Record cash received from a specific employee

Entering a Pay In or Pay Out

Select Pay In or Pay Out from the segment control at the top.
The instructions at the top of the screen read "Enter amount and description to pay in" or "Enter amount and description to pay out" accordingly.
Use the number pad to enter the dollar amount.
Enter a Description in the text field to explain the reason (e.g., "Opening float", "Vendor payment").
Tap Submit.
Enter your manager PIN when prompted to confirm.

Recording an Employee Tip Out

Select Employee Tip Out from the segment control.
The instructions read: "Enter amount and select employee or order mode".
Use the number pad to enter the tip amount.
Tap the Select Employee or Order mode dropdown button and choose the employee or Order Mode receiving the tip out.
Tap Submit and confirm with a manager PIN.

Recording an Employee Cash In

Select Employee Cash In from the segment control.
The instructions read: "Enter amount and select employee".
Use the number pad to enter the amount.
Tap the Select Employee dropdown and choose the employee.
Tap Submit and confirm with a manager PIN.

Troubleshooting

Submit button is not responding

Make sure an amount is entered using the number pad and that all required fields are filled in. For tip outs and employee cash in, an employee or Order Mode must also be selected.

PIN prompt appears but my PIN is rejected

Only staff with the appropriate manager-level permissions can authorize Pay In / Out transactions. Ask a manager to enter their PIN to complete the transaction.

This option may be hidden for your role. Contact your restaurant manager to verify your staff permissions include financial transaction access.
