Auto Sentry® flex User Manual 111 Service Unit Screen
Check Balances Periodically
You can view the balances for each Auto Sentry® as often as you like in the Terminal Balances
screen (Financial > Audit Controls > Terminal Balance Report). The numbers are updated in
real time as customers make purchases. You can press the Refresh button to refresh the report and
see the most current balances. By monitoring these balances, you will know when to add funds if
levels fall too low. Bill dispensers can be configured to accept ones or fives with a typical
maximum capacity between 1,000 to 1,500 bills. You can also remove bill acceptor funds before
maximum capacity is reached, typically 1,000 bills.
Verify Cash Management Transactions Daily
The Verify command in the Journals is available to help you locate and correct discrepancies in
the Cash Management journal. Use the Verify command whenever you remove money from the
Auto Sentry® flex®.
It is not necessary to verify entries—WashConnect® software will continue to operate with
unverified journal entries; however, it is good business practice to verify entries.
For example, someone else created the Corporate Bank Deposit entry in the cash
management journal. You can double-check the amount shown in the journal against an
actual count of the cash received. If you find a mistake, you can use the Verify command to
make changes and correct the mistake.
