Abstract:

The safe assembly includes a safe for securing cash and a currency reader coupled to the safe for determining the amount of cash received in the safe. A central control unit is configured to receive deposit information from the safe assembly and to generate and transmit deposit reports. Preferably, the central control unit also transmits identifiers that distinguish deposit information accumulated during an accounting period before a predetermined event and deposit information accumulated during the accounting period after the predetermined event. The cash information server is configured to receive the deposit information and the identifiers from the central control unit and to identify the amount of cash collected by the business establishment during the accounting period. Preferably, the cash information server is located off-site from the safe assembly.
