If the customer gives you an amount of cash to pay for their transaction and the amount they gave you isn't on one of the quick buttons just type in the amount they gave you and press cash.

It can be recalled later by any cashier. The discount pricing and special instructions will also be recalled. This allows your customer to pick up their order at any time and not be required to wait until you are available.
Suspend Transaction - Allows you to suspend this transaction. Typically this is used when a customer realizes that his wallet is in the car and other customers are waiting in line behind him. Rather than voiding the entire transaction then re-ringing it when he comes back in, use this button to save the transaction. Saved transactions are stored under the Cashier ID. When the customer comes back with his wallet, the cashier will click the "Recall Transaction" button in the "Sale" screen. The suspend transaction feature may also be used when the Station is having internet difficulty (or any other equipment issues). The cashier may suspend the transaction, log off the station with the problem, move to another station (one that is functioning properly), and recall the transaction to contiue waiting on the customer.
