Abstract
Abstract A cash managing system comprises a plurality of automatic teller machines for receiving and dispensing cash from and to a customer, a cash arrangement device for arranging cash to be handled in the teller machines, and a plurality of loading safes. Each loading safe is designed to be selectively mounted in a desired one of the teller machines and the cash arrangement device, and transfers cash between the teller machine and the cash arrangement device. The cash arrangement device includes a data memory for storing cash data with respect to each teller machine. The cash data includes denominations and the amount of cash to be loaded in each teller machine. When a loading safe is mounted in a mount section of the cash arrangement device, a transfer mechanism of the device transfers cash, having the denomination and amount stored in the memory means, to the mounted loading safe.
