Creating an operating fund

Operating funds contain the cash and vouchers you need for the transactions within your business. They include floats, operating change and petty cash.

Note: If floats need to be pre-allocated to POS operators, you need to create a separate fund for each float. If floats do not need to be pre-allocated, then they can be created from an operating fund when required.

1. In Cinema Manager or Head Office, create a fund.
2. Set the fund location to one of the fund locations you've created for operating funds.
3. Configure whether the fund can include denomination payment types.

   For example: You may not want to include denomination payment types in your operating change fund, so you'd select Do not allow denomination payment types on that fund; however, you may want to include both denomination and non-denomination payment types in your floats, so you'd select Allow denomination payment types on your float funds.

4. If you want to make deposits from this fund, select Allow deposit from. This will make the fund appear on the deposit form.

   Note: Allow deposit from is only available if the system setting CashDepositFrom is set to either Funds Only or POS Sessions and Funds.

5. Configure whether fund counts are required for this fund.
6. Ensure Dispatch on close day, Banking fund, Disable on dispatch and Must be empty to close day are not selected.
