How To: Record Transit Money in EvolveGo
Introduction
While EvolveGo does not have a dedicated Transit Money register, you can still effectively track and report on Transit Money transactions by using the Safe Custody feature. This guide outlines the steps to achieve this.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Create a Safe Custody Packet
Set up a Safe Custody packet specifically for Transit Money in your firm’s records. Name the packet clearly to distinguish it from other Safe Custody items.

Step 2: Document Each Transit Money Receipt
For each receipt, create a new document in the Safe Custody packet. Be sure to include the following details:
- Select “Transit Money” as the Document Type.
- Enter all relevant details, such as the cheque number, in the description field.

Use consistent naming and details to simplify tracking.
Step 3: Hand Over Cheques to Third Parties
When handing over a cheque, update its status and record the necessary audit information:
- Change the status to “Removed from Safe Custody.”
- Record the recipient and date for audit purposes.
