Recording Cash Sales
All sales, including cash sales, should be recorded in the Trail's End App. Leaders are also able to record cash sales in the Leader Portal, if necessary.
Managing Cash Due From a Scout
When Scouts record cash Individual Sales, the system tracks the amount of cash they owe to the unit. This amount appears on your Scouts page in the Cash column.
Scouts can settle their cash owed by:
Using Cash to Credit® - See Cash to Credit: Quick Guide for Parents & Scouts
Turning in cash directly to the leader
As a leader, you are responsible for recording when cash is turned in and ensuring it is deposited into the unit’s bank account.
How to Record Cash Turned in by a Scout
Go to Scouts on the main navigation menus
Find the Scout in your list.
Click on the Scout’s name.
Scroll to Cash Management
Click Collect from Scout.
Enter the amount of cash the Scout turned in and click Submit.
Deposit the collected cash into your unit’s bank account.
This will reduce the Scout’s cash owed balance accordingly.
Correcting a Cash Entry Mistake
