: Cashing-up also involves checking the amount against the takings. Here they are just removing money for security's sake so there is never more than (€500?) in the till

: Agree with Douglas. Cashing up is what you do at the end of the day to verify the takings. This is simple 'bleeding' of the till, except we don't use that expression in English.

cash accountability
I remember hearing this phrase (cash accountability) from my days working at a grocery store but I'm not certain if this is the best/most proper translation

cash limit withdrawal / cash limit pick up
I've seen this as the option on the till display software in the supermarket (in Brazil). The important factor is that the cash is 'withdrawn' or 'picked up' at a pre-defined level or limit so that no amount of excess cash remains in the till.

remove excess cash
The last time I came across this term I went to the shop in question and the manager said they could not have more than €500 in the till for security reasions so they woukld take out most of the large notes, enter how much they were removing (not what they were leaving) into the system and put the notes in the safe. There was no checking of whether the amounts registered were correct or not. HIH
