Cash Handling Units

Campus departments that collect and deposit payments for various reasons are known as cash-handling units.

Cash-handling units are defined as:

• Main Cashiering Station
  Campus operating unit from which collections are deposited directly to a University bank account.
• Sub-cashiering Station
  Campus operating unit from which collections are deposited to a Main Cashiering Station. These units typically perform cashier activities as a primary function and operate cash handling equipment.
• Cash Handling Department
  Campus operating unit that typically collects cash or cash equivalents and deposits to either a Main Cashiering Station or a Sub-cashiering Station.
