Many Operators purchased electronic ticket machines (ETM's) and cash deposit systems (CDS's) and wondered why they did not make material savings on administration overheads. A common cause is that depot staff still need to reconcile the drivers' ETM to their CDS cash value - a task often undertaken manually. Our software not only further automates the process leaving a complete audit trail, but also provides:

• Driver shorts / overs on a daily and weekly basis
• A reconciliation of daily banking (cash collections)
• Control over emergency tickets, tokens and warrants
• Electronic transfer of files to payroll systems
• Comprehensive financial reports, including Nominal Ledger Journals.

Driver activities including ETM data and paying in machine data is collected on a daily basis with miscellaneous items (cancelled tickets, unrecognised notes, etc.) input manually when appropriate.

Daily reports are available showing driver imbalances as are weekly profiles. It is possible to carry shorts / overs across from one week to the next in order to build up a complete picture.

Daily bankings (cash collections), including individual payments into Giro, are input in order to provide a full reconciliation of transactions at Head Office. Special deposits such as canteen and telephone cash are handled such that it is possible to control all of a depot's cash activities within the one program.

This now integrates with our Cash Tracker module to facilitate accurate tracking of cash collections all the way to the bank.

There is a comprehensive list of reports available which provide data in various formats for drivers' notice board listings, emergency ticket stock controls and nominal ledger postings. Many types of payroll deduction agreements are catered for as are drivers PIN, payroll and box numbers if necessary.
