SMS BALANCING

Introduction

LOC SMS software provides a series of tools and reports to assist the store cashiers and
bookkeeper track and balance the flow of money through the store and maintain accountability
for all employees involved in the money handling process. This document will serve as a quick
guide to the safe and drawer balancing process in LOC SMS software. Your store procedures may
vary depending on what features and processes you wish to implement. We highly recommend
that you implement the full suite of balancing and reporting functions available in the software.

Balancing Concepts

Media (or Tender) is the various instruments of payment accepted in the store, for example:
cash, checks, credit card, account charge, etc. Media may also include saleable media like lottery
tickets and post stamps depending on your store’s specific setup and procedures.

Accountability Method defines the level of accountability for cashiers. Generally, there are two
methods used to manage accountability:

 Drawer Accountability is the method by which media is tracked and accounted for by
each cash register, in this scenario, you may have several cashiers working out of one till
throughout the day.

 Cashier Accountability is the method by which media is tracked and accounted for by
each individual cashier. In this scenario, only one cashier accesses and is responsible for
the money in their cash drawer.

Drawer is the location in SMS where all media are loaned into the terminal from the safe. The
drawer in SMS is tied to a till which is the physical storage of media loaned for cashier operations.

Safe is the location in SMS where all media are received into the store from outside the store.
The safe in SMS is tied to the physical storage location of all the media in the store, such as a
safety box or strongbox. The physical safe is sometimes referred as bank and/or store.

Drawer Balancing is the process of counting and balancing media in the cash drawer.

Safe Balancing is the process of counting and balancing media in the store safe.

Balancing Transactions are operations done in SMS to transfer responsibility of media to and
from outside institutions (bank, lottery authority, postal service), the safe, and the drawers. In
SMS, transactions are either performed on the safe or on the drawers:

Safe Transactions:

 Receive is the function used to track the media/tender types that come into the safe. This
is typically used for cash brought from the bank, but also may include saleable media like
post stamps and lottery tickets brought in from the post office and lotto authority
respectively.
 Deposit is the function that tracks the media/tender types removed from the safe to
typically deposit with a financial institution. However, it does not necessarily mean a
bank, such is the case of lottery tickets that may be picked up by the local lottery
authority.
 Safe Declare is the function normally used at the end of the business day (or week) to
declare the balance in the safe. This process determines the over/short amount of the
safe.

Drawer Transactions:

 Loan is the process that moves accountability from the safe to the drawer for one or more
media types.
 Pickup is the process that moves accountability from the drawer to the safe for one or
more media types. Often called a drop.
 Drawer Declare is the function normally used at the end of the business day to declare
the drawers. Before declaring a drawer, final pickups of all media types have to be done.
This process determines the final over/short of the operator.

Over/Short is the difference between the amount that the operator declares (either safe or
drawer) and the amount the system has determined should be present (expected) based on sales
and other accounting transactions.

Global Date is the date that accounting transactions are occurring against. This may or may not
coincide with the actual system date depending on your specific store procedures.

EFT (electronic fund transfer) is any form of payment media made electronically, made with a
card or EMV enabled device. These include credit, debit, EBT, and WIC.

Daily Process (Accounting Cycle)

The accounting cycle in your store may vary from this scenario depending on when you actually
perform the balancing steps, what type of accountability method you’ve implemented and to
what extent you decide to implement the balancing functions. Additionally, it is important to
note that these steps are not necessarily chronological. While some of them must be performed
in a particular order, many can be done throughout the accounting cycle. This example assumes
the following:

 Drawer accountability method is in use.

 Drawer is started on a given day but balancing is done on the following day.
 The bookkeeper is responsible for counting down the drawers and performing a pickup
equal to that amount in the system.
 The bookkeeper performs a daily deposit for the previous days business.
 The bookkeeper performs a safe declare daily.

Daily process Steps:

1. Receive (safe transaction): As money comes into the store from the bank (or other
institution (not sales), the bookkeeper must receive it into the safe. This procedure may
happen at any time during the accounting cycle and it’s typically used to bring change into
the store for operations.

2. Loan (drawer transaction): The bookkeeper must perform the initial loan to cashiers; this
is the count of change left in the drawer at the end of the day. It may also include post
stamp loans to use for the day. This step must be done at the start of the day before the
register is opened. It is recommended that the cashier counts and confirms that loan.

Loan again throughout the day as required to support sales operations. After the initial
loan, this function can be repeated various times during the shift. An example of when a
drawer may need additional loans is when cashiers run out of coin change a cashier may
ask for a loan from the safe.

3. Sales (drawer transaction): The cashier sales goods from the store, the various forms of
payment increase the accountable media totals for each drawer, including EFTs.

Sale

4. Pickups (drawer transaction): As the cash in the drawer increases because of sales, it can
present a security concern. It is common to perform a cash pickup during the shift to
reduce the amount of cash in the drawer. This process reduces the cashiers’ accountable
amount and increases the safe accountable amount.

It is common for cashiers to purchase change from the safe as well, for example: cashier
gives a $20 bill in exchange for 20 ones. In this case, it is not necessary to perform a loan.

5. Store close: At the end of the cashiers’ shift, the bookkeeper will remove the larger bills
and leave small change in the drawer. The rest of the media and receipts are put in a
money bag and placed in the safe.

The following day the bookkeeper will confirm the media set aside, prepare new tills and
balance the drawers for this business day.

6. Global date change (SMS date): Now on a different day, the bookkeeper must change
the date so that all the following transactions are recorded for the balancing day’s
accounting cycle.

7. Final Pickup (drawer transactions): The change left in the drawer and the media in the
money bag from the previous day must be counted and picked up by the bookkeeper.
This moves all accountability from the drawer into the safe. Note that EFTs are setup to
automatically and instantly pick up by SMS so these don’t need to be done manually.

If there are any mistakes, the bookkeeper must correct them. A mistake in a loan amount
is corrected by doing a negative loan, and a mistake in a pickup must be corrected by
doing a negative pickup.

At the completion of this step, all accountability for all media should be in the safe.

8. Drawer declare (drawer transaction): The bookkeeper must perform a drawer declare of
zero for all media including post stamps. By this process the drawer is declared empty
and SMS calculates the over/short for the drawers.

9. Based on the previous day’s receipts and the necessary amount of cash the store needs
to have on hand, the bookkeeper will prepare and record a deposit in the system. This
moves the accountability from the safe out of the store.

10. The final step in balancing the safe is to count the remaining balance in the safe and
perform the safe declare. This process will determine the safe over/short amount.

11. Logout of the software to change the global date back to the current date. Logging out
automatically changes the global date to the current date.

Balancing Saleable Media

Saleable media are accountable instruments exchangeable for services such as postage and
gaming. Items like post stamps and lottery scratchers maybe setup in your store to be handled
as tender media. In this case, lotto scratchers and post stamps have to be loaned and picked up
by the bookkeeper as part of the balancing cycle. Sales of these items are not added to the store’s
net, as they do not provide revenue to the store and the value of the item is an exchange for
cash.

Transaction procedures for these two saleable media types is specific to your store.

1. Receive Post Stamps (safe transaction): The bookkeeper has to receive this media into
the safe. Receiving media into the safe, increases accountability on this media type.

2. Loan Post Stamps (drawer transaction): The bookkeeper must loan the total value of the
post stamp books for a given drawer. The tender has its own line in the list of tenders
available in the balancing module. Loans of this media to the drawers decreases the
accountability of the safe and increases it in the drawer.

3. Sell Post Stamps (drawer transaction): The cashier must use the ‘Post Stamp’ selling
function on the selling screen for the number. As customers buy this saleable media, the
accountability of the drawer on the media type ‘Post Stamps’ will decrease, and the
accountability on the media type ‘Cash’ will increase. This is because the sale of a post
stamp is an exchange of this media for money. Cash is being received in exchange for
dispensed post stamps.

on post stamps. The bookkeeper will also pickup from the drawer any loaned posts
stamps not sold during the shift.

5. Drawer Declare (drawer transaction): After the final pickup of media, the bookkeeper
must declare the media on the drawer as zero assuming that the till is empty. This
completes balancing on the drawer.

With the drawer balanced, follow the next steps to complete safe balancing. Post stamps
is not media that is deposited in the bank. The balance of unsold post stamps must remain
in the safe and declared.

6. Safe Declare (safe transaction): With accountability of the remaining – not sold post
stamps back in the safe, the bookkeeper must count and verify that the sold stamps with
a report (Safe Balancing, Store Multi totals). The final count of this saleable media must
be then declared for SMS to calculate the safe over/short.

Post stamp media transactions should be performed as part of the daily balancing cycle
and along with the balancing of other media and not separately.

LOTTO
Lotto Scratchers Balancing
1. Receive Lotto Scratchers (safe transaction): The bookkeeper has to receive into the safe
all lotto scratcher media that has been activated. Receiving lotto scratchers increases
accountability on this media type in the safe.

2. From the safe, the bookkeeper will load the active tickets into the lotto scratcher machine
on a daily, bi-weekly or weekly basis. Moving the scratcher tickets from the safe to the
lotto dispensing machine does not reduce accountability from the safe.

3. Loan Lotto Scratchers (drawer transaction): On a daily, bi-weekly, or weekly basis, the
bookkeeper will collect the sales report total from the lotto scratcher machine and loan
the same amount into a drawer. This is done because the bookkeeper will have to create
a sales transaction for Lotto scratchers in the next step. Lotto scratcher loans increase
the accountability of a drawer and decreases it in the safe.

4. Sell Lotto Scratchers (drawer transaction): On the same terminal that received the loan
for lotto scratchers, open and cash out a sale for the same amount of the scratcher
machine sales report and loan made in the previous step. The sales of this media will
increase accountability of ‘Cash’ in the drawer and decrease it on the in-drawer line for
‘Lotto Scratchers’. When the transaction is complete, the in-drawer amount for this
media should be zero.

5. Pickups (drawer transaction): Pickups for this media should not happen. If an error was
made the bookkeeper must corrected by performing a negative pickup transaction.
Pickup revenue ‘Cash’ should be as with any other cash pickup.

6. Drawer Declare (drawer transaction): After the final pickup of media, the bookkeeper
should declare the media on the drawer as zero – since the loaned amount for scratchers
matches the sales, the in-drawer should be zero. This transaction completes balancing
on the drawer. SMS will calculate the over/short based on the above transactions.

Lotto scratchers is not media that is deposited in the bank, but occasionally, your state’s
lotto commission may come in a remove a number of active tickets. The agent must
provide a statement of the media removed from the lotto scratcher.

7. Deposit Lotto Scratcher (safe transaction): The only scenario in which the safe will need
to have a deposit transaction for Lottery Scratchers is when your state’s lottery
commission removes active tickets from the lotto scratcher machine. At this point, a
deposit transaction must be done in the amount equal to that of the removed lotto
scratcher totals. A statement should be provided by the commission agent and that shall
be proof of your deposit.

8. Safe Declare (safe transaction): With accountability of the remaining – not sold post lotto
scratchers back in the safe, the bookkeeper must count and verify the sold tickets with a
report (Safe Balancing, Store Multi totals). The final count of this saleable media must be
then declared for SMS to calculate the safe over/short.

Lotto scratcher media transactions should be performed as part of the store’s daily, bi-
weekly, or weekly balancing cycle for lottery scratcher tickets and along with the
balancing of other media for the day the above transactions are done.
