To track tender in Bravo, always perform a Tender Transfer when moving money. Tender can be transferred between the bank, safe, and tills, but not directly from bank to till. The money flow is Bank Account > Store Safe > Till.

The Transfer Tender feature also tracks cash leaving the register for expenses without a transaction, like Meals and Entertainment, using the Cash Disbursement option. More details are in the second half of this article.

Tills must be open to transfer tender. To move tender from the bank to a till, first transfer it to the safe, then to the till.

Instructions

To move money into the Till or out to the Bank, follow these steps:

  • From the Bravo Dashboard, click on Transfer Tender in the right panel.
  • The Tender Transfer screen will appear.
  • Select a Source and Destination.
  • Source is where the money comes from, and Destination is where it goes.

For a new store, transfer money from the Bank Account to the Store Safe first, then from the Store Safe to the Till on a second Tender Transfer. The source determines the destination options.

  • Enter the transfer amount in the Amount column for Cash and hit Enter.
  • The Transfer Amount box will display the entered amount.

 

  • Use the Note box to enter any information or comment about the transfer.
  • This information will print on the Transfer Slip and will appear in the Store Register Journal.
  • The Current Amount, Transfer Amount and the Balance Amount on the top right of the screen are all based on the Destination.
  • Click Save to complete the transfer.

Bravo will transfer the funds and print a transfer slip to your receipts printer.

Cash Disbursement

Cash Disbursement helps track cash leaving the register for various expenses without a transaction.

Examples include:

  • Meals and Entertainment
  • Office Supplies
  • Miscellaneous Labor
  • Repairs
  • Cleaning Supplies

Types of Cash Disbursements may vary by store and can be customized in the General Ledger. For customization details, check out our "How-to-Post-to-Accounting" article.

Ensure your store and till are open and you have the necessary permissions to perform a cash disbursement.

Instructions

  • Click on Transfer Tender from the Bravo Dashboard.
  • Select Cash Disbursement from the Tender Transfer screen.
  • Configure your disbursement here.

Fill out the following information:

  • Source - Defaults to the till you are using.
  • Type - Choose from the drop-down list.
  • Comments - Add any specific details.
  • Amount - Specify the amount taken from the till.

Example:

  • This disbursement is for Meals and Entertainment, specifically Pizza for $87.67.
  • Click Save.
  • Bravo will process the transfer, deducting the amount from the till and printing a receipt.
  • This method tracks cash movement, ensuring your till balances and providing an audit trail for expenditures.
