Process steps

Count all currency by denomination

1 hours from previous step

task

Start with the largest bills and work your way down. Count each denomination twice - once facing up, once facing down. Use a counting machine if one's available, but always verify by hand. Sort bills by condition as you count - worn bills in one stack, crisp ones in another. Denominations to count: - $100 bills - $50 bills - $20 bills - $10 bills - $5 bills - $1 bills - Coins (rolled and loose) Jot down each total before you move to the next denomination. Don't rely on memory.

Reconcile against transaction log

1 hours from previous step

task

Pull your transaction journal from the system. Add up all cash-in transactions (deposits, payments received), then subtract all cash-out transactions (withdrawals, check cashing). Your starting cash plus net transactions should match what you just counted. Formula: Starting Cash + Deposits - Withdrawals = Expected Ending Cash If the numbers don't match, don't panic. Go through your transactions one by one before you escalate.

Document any discrepancies

1 hours from previous step

task

If your drawer is over or short, write it down right away. Small differences under $10 happen - they're annoying but normal. Anything over $25 needs your supervisor's attention immediately. For each discrepancy, note: - Amount over or short - Possible cause (if you know it) - Any unusual transactions that day - Time you discovered the discrepancy Don't try to cover shortages out of your own pocket. That's against policy and it only makes things worse.

Prepare cash for vault

1 hours from previous step

task

Separate your drawer cash from the bank's operating cash. Your drawer gets reset to the standard starting amount (usually $3,000-$5,000 depending on your branch), and everything else goes to the vault. Bundle the excess cash properly: - Strap $100 bills in bundles of 100 ($10,000) - Strap $20 bills in bundles of 100 ($2,000) - Use coin wrappers for loose change Double-count the vault cash. The head teller'll verify it.
