cash out - pay for item

[shOP_QLD]

How do people get around there being no cash out option. So in the past on other register systems if I had to send a staff memeber tot he shops to buy coffee, or bags etc I would do a "cash out" through the till so there was a record of it. However there doesnt seem to be this feature with Square. Yes there is the cash drawer but this doenst take the funds from the till yuo have to have a seperate cash drawer/box/envelope etc set up. I want to simply take money from the till have a record of it to pay for random items like plastic bags?

Hey @shOP_QLD

With the Paid In/Out feature, you can record deposits and withdrawals from your cash drawer. Cash paid in and out appears in the drawer history on the iPad, with both the description you enter and the total amount in the drawer.

To record cash paid in and out:

1. From your in-app menu, tap Reports > Current Drawer.
2. Tap Paid In/Out.
3. Enter the cash amount and a description.
4. Tap Paid In if you add cash, or Paid Out if you remove cash from the drawer.
5. Tap Confirm Paid In or Confirm Paid Out.

Hope this helps - let me know if you have any questions!
