Drawer Report Program - May 2011 (VBA/Excel) The company that this was developed for had many questionable things happening with drawer discrepancies and

nightly deposits. It was not known if the nature of these issues came from fraud or confusion. To calculate the

balance of the register, information was needed on cash counts, point of sale system reports, and reports generated

from a website. This program was created to guide all employees through opening and closing the drawer. This

program forced reports to be exported, and the drawer could not be finalized until it was balanced and all

differences were explained. This program saved a lot of time, and made it easy to recreate reports from previous

days. This program was fraud proof because of contradictory security checks.

This was the opening cash screen of the program (with the main cash report in the background). Each morning, the opening

employee would have to count each quantity of cash money, and mark their name.

After the opening screen, a “how-to” screen would appear to show the employee how to enter the data into the point of sale

system.

This was the closing screen of the program. This screen required reports to be exported from the point of sale system and

website. When these reports were opened before trying to use the close function, the data from the reports were imported.

The automatic import of data prevented erroneous or fraudulent entry.

The closing screen had an “Advice” button. This function would see what parts of the drawer were not balanced, and provided

proper solutions for the issues.

Even if the reason for the drawer discrepancy is known, individual adjustments must be added until the difference is $0. This

form allowed a positive or negative adjustment for any reason. These reasons would be noted on the main printed report.
