Generate Totals

If not, the system prompts to generate the totals.  Totals must be generated before accessing Trust Deposits.  Once complete, the Trust Deposits screen is opened.

Samples

As an example, imagine a new reservation is made and a $100 deposit is taken.  Once Generate Totals is run at the end of the day, that $100 can be transferred from the 10002 Undeposited Cash Account and into the 10003 Checking Account.  Use the Trust Deposits screen to move monies to their proper place after bank transactions.
