    Set Up a Cash Drawer

    Benefits of Cash Drawers in Erply

    The Power of Choice
    Cash drawers are incredibly easy to set up in Erply, giving you more flexibility when it comes to the setup of your store. Add or remove cash drawers at any time while still keeping consistent day-to-day cash flow reports.

    No Cash Drawer: Great for stores that allow customers to pay online and pickup in-store.
    Hybrid Setup: Often used in stores that have dedicated cash registers and mobile employees.

    Track Manual Cash Drawer Opens
    Erply creates a record whenever the cash drawer is opened that can be viewed at the register or in the back office. Cash drawer records give detailed information, such as who opened the cash drawer and what time they opened it.

    Set Up and Configure a Cash Drawer to Erply

    First, install EPSI to your POS device. Choose a printer-driven cash drawer.
    Note: Cash drawers that connect directly to the computer will not work with Erply.

    Navigate to POS Settings -> External Device Integrations -> Fiscal Setting -> Advanced -> Cash Drawer -> Interface drop-down menu. Select printer-cashdrawer.
    Cash drawer openings will show how much cash, if any, was added or removed from the register. All cash draw records can be filtered by day, time, and employee.
