It may become necessary for Dealers to create and maintain multiple case drawers
For example:
- The Dealer may have separate "point of sale" cash drawers (ie Merchandise section / Parts section / Service section) physically on the premises and each section looks after balancing their own till at the end of the day
- By setting up each "point of sale" cash drawer as a separate Cash Drawer on Blackpurl, it will allow the end of day balancing to be a lot simpler to process
Setting up the Multiple Cash Drawers
Setup will only need to be done once or whenever you need to add an additional Cash Drawer
