Automated Revel Cash Variance Report by Location
Every morning, WebRun opens Revel Systems, reads each location's end-of-day cash expected total and actual counted total from the prior close, calculates the variance for every drawer, and posts any location where the variance exceeds your threshold to Slack with the amount, location name, and shift details.
How do I automatically detect cash drawer variances across all my POS locations?
WebRun reads Revel Systems end-of-day cash totals for every location each morning, calculates the difference between expected and actual cash for each drawer, and posts any location above your variance threshold to Slack with the full breakdown. Managers catch cash discrepancies before the next shift opens, without reviewing each location manually.
- Cash discrepancies at any location caught the same morning they occur
- Management sees all flagged drawers in one Slack message, not after individually reviewing each store
- Pattern of variances at one location identified over time for follow-up
Built for multi-location restaurant managers · retail chain operators · franchise owners · loss prevention teams

Questions, answered
What threshold triggers a flag?
You set the threshold. Common settings are any variance above $10 for a quick-service location or above $25 for a full-service restaurant. WebRun flags only locations that exceed your chosen amount.
Does it flag overages as well as shortages?
Yes. Both shortages and overages are flagged if they exceed the threshold. An overage can indicate a counting error or a reconciliation issue just as much as a shortage can.
Will it take any disciplinary action or notify the employee?
No. WebRun only reports the variance to your management channel. Any follow-up with employees or stores is handled entirely by your management team.
