Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for till management. In one implementation, a recycling of notes is triggered using a recycler controller. The notes are recycled using a cash recycler, and the notes corresponding to a till. A coin value of plurality of coins corresponding to the till is recorded using the recycler controller. The coin value is determined by capturing a weight of a set of coins of the plurality of coins corresponding to a designated coin denomination. The weight of the set of coins is captured using a coin scale. The till is validated based on the coin value and the recycling of the notes.
Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for securely transferring a locked container from a primary vault to a secondary vault. In one implementation, a triggering event corresponding to a transfer of a first locked container from the primary vault to the secondary vault is detected. The first locked container is detected in the primary vault, and a second locked container is detected in the secondary vault. A transfer time for the transfer is determined based on when the second locked container is detected in the secondary vault. The transfer is validated as a compliant transfer when the second locked container is identified as the first locked container and the transfer time is within a time tolerance band.

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for sorting disc objects, such as coins, into customizable combinations. In one implementation, a singulator is configured to isolate a disc object from a batch of disc objects. A rail is disposed relative to the singulator, and gravity directs the disc object through the singulator onto the rail. A discriminator determines a size and a composition of the disc object as the disc object travels along the rail. The discriminator determines a denomination and a validity of the disc object based on the size and the composition. A sorter is in communication with the discriminator. The sorter ejects the disc object into a chute corresponding to the denomination and the validity.

Implementations described and claimed herein involve systems and methods for facilitating coin hopper maintenance. In one implementation, a top plate is received in a bucket assembly of the coin hopper at a proximal end. The top plate seals one or more coins in an interior of the bucket assembly. The coin hopper is positioned in an inverted orientation by meeting a target surface with the top plate. The inverted orientation positions the bucket assembly at a distal end near the target surface and a base assembly at the proximal end. A hopper dispenser is disengaged from the base assembly of the coin hopper.

Method for cleaning components of a cash control safe
A method for cleaning a cash interface device of a cash control safe includes establishing a cash interface device cleaning frequency. The number of operations of the cash interface device is counted. Comparison between the counted number of operations of the device is made to the established cleaning frequency. A notice is provided to an operator when the counted number of operations of the device exceeds the established frequency indicating a need for a cleaning operation for the device.
A computerized drop safe running control and security software on a central processing unit controlling (CPU) operating features on and access to the drop safe. A user hierarchy has different access policies for making different transactions into the safe. Vault door access is controlled by the CPU to allow user access according to enabled policies. Transactions into and out of the safe vaults, motovend tube dispenser, and currency recyclers are recorded by the amounts and the user making the transaction into a memory coupled to the CPU. This data is also reported to a point of sale control interface at another location using a modem or Ethernet connection. The CPU can also receive data and control inputs by the modem and Ethernet, permitting centralized accounting and vending control options. A back office at the store can also easily access the safe for data retrieval or control inputs into the CPU using an Ethernet local area network computer system.
