Insurance coverage of a first lifestage is provided for the customer in accordance with the insurance allocation of the first lifestage. The insurance coverage from the insurance allocation for the first lifestage is shifted to the insurance allocation for the second lifestage upon determining a shift in lifestages has occurred.
摘要:
To facilitate the monitoring of currency and coin levels in a point of sale system and other cash handling devices, one or more currency or coin scales may be integrated into the point of sale system or cash handling device. Currency and coin amount information may be transmitted to a back office system or to a financial institution for recognition of the funds. A measurement by the scale may be triggered by a transaction occurring, based on a specified schedule or in an on-demand fashion.

A torque limiter in which grease passages are provided to enable better lubrication of the wearing components. A disconnect nut is also provided to readily enable release of the torque limiter even for very high release sellings to afford greasing as a part of a maintenance regimen.
摘要:
A target level of funds may be defined to specify an ideal level of currency stored in a currency handling device for efficient operation. The target level may be modified based on forecasted currency usage needs. Forecasts may be conducted based on historical usage data, user input and seasonal/event considerations. When a level of funds exceeds the target level by a specified amount, a transport request may be generated. When a level of funds underruns the target level by a specified amount, a change order request may be generated. In one or more arrangements, recommendations for target levels, transport requests and change order requests may be provided for user confirmation instead of automatically executing the recommendation.
