Systems and methods for cash-till optimization

A computer-implemented method for updating locally stored cash dispensing data at a cash handling device, the method comprising:

• receiving, via a communication interface, operational data from one or more cash handling devices, wherein the operational data received from each of the one or more cash handling devices comprises one or more register till identifiers and register till usage data generated at a cash handling device of the one or more cash handling devices, and the operational data additionally comprises one or more of:
• (a) a cash handling device identifier or (b) cash handling device configuration data, wherein the register till usage data reflects exchange transactions between a cash handling device and a register till associated with a register till identifier;
• generating, within one or more memory storage areas, historical data based at least in part on the operational data received from one or more cash handling devices, wherein the historical data identifies till usage data associated with one or more register till identifiers over time;
• receiving, via the one or more processors, optimization parameters applicable to one or more register tills;
• generating, via the one or more processors and based at least in part on the optimization parameters and the historical data, optimization data associated with one or more register till identifiers;
• and
• transmitting at least a portion of the optimization data to a cash handling device associated with one or more register till identifiers, wherein the optimization data causes the cash handling device to update locally stored executing instructions to implement the optimization data during cash dispensing processes for one or more register tills.

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium having computer program instructions stored therein, the computer program instructions when executed by a processor, cause the processor to:

• receive operational data from one or more cash handling devices, wherein the operational data received from each of the one or more cash handling devices comprises one or more register till identifiers and register till usage data generated at a cash handling device of the one or more cash handling devices, and the operational data additionally comprises one or more of:
• (a) a cash handling device identifier or (b) cash handling device configuration data, wherein the register till usage data reflects exchange transactions between a cash handling device and a register till associated with a register till identifier;
• generate, within the one or more memory storage areas, historical data based at least in part on the operational data received from one or more cash handling devices, wherein the historical data identifies till usage data associated with one or more register till identifiers over time;
• receive optimization parameters applicable to one or more register tills;
• generate, based at least in part on the optimization parameters and the historical data, optimization data associated with one or more register till identifiers;
• and
• transmit at least a portion of the optimization data to a cash handling device associated with one or more register till identifiers, wherein the optimization data causes the cash handling device to update locally stored executing instructions to implement the optimization data during cash dispensing processes for one or more register tills.
