01 Check the count packet

Two counters check each till’s starting bank, added change, drops, payouts and full denomination count. Count all cash before setting aside the retained bank. Attach payout receipts.

Sample: ending cash $942 + drops $250 − retained bank $225 = $967 cash to deposit. Include drops once. No added change or payouts here.

02 Keep each payment total separate
