Gratuities

Purpose

The Gratuities Window is used to establish and maintain up to 16 different Gratuities. Gratuities are activated based on Location, the number of guests in a party, and the Menu Items on the Check. An employee with the 'Gratuity - Select' Job Right may apply predefined or variable Gratuities to a Check. The same job right is necessary to remove a Gratuity from a Check.
