Close all open orders before counting. Count cash with a witness. Document any variance with an explanation. Never leave cash unattended during the count.
A daily closing procedure for cashiers and shift managers reconciling the cash register at end of service. Covers the systematic count-down process — closing all open orders, printing the end-of-day report, counting the cash drawer by denomination, reconciling against POS totals, documenting any variance, securing cash, closing the card terminal batch, and preparing the register for tomorrow.
Cash reconciliation is the most fraud-sensitive daily task in a restaurant. A structured closing procedure with witnessed counts and documented variances creates accountability and catches errors the same day they occur — before they become unresolvable discrepancies.
