Service charges can be programmed to add to either the Service
Charge field, or the Gross Receipts field. Select Discount/Service |
Discount/Service Charge | Post to svc charges total to post the service
charge to the service charge field. Clear this option to post the totals
to Gross Receipts.
You can use the Service Charge figures in one of two ways:
q
to produce totals that can be used in preparing IRS tax forms, or
q
to report autogratuities.
Service charges that are tips may be programmed to post to the
service charge field. (Post to svc charges total is selected). Services
charges that are not tips (for example, a cover charge, or banquet
room charge) should be programmed to add to Gross Receipts (Post
to svc charges total is cleared).
You may wish to use the Service Charge total to track autogratuities.
In this case, program any autogratuities you wish to track to add to the
service charge, and program all other service charges to add to gross
receipts.
Post to svc charges total works in conjunction with Charge tip on the
same form. Only one of these options should be selected. If both
options are selected, Post to svc charges total will be ignored.
The number of guests is determined by the seat count, the number of
specified service charges or menu items, or by the guest count entered
by the employees.
To use seat count to determine the number of guests, select RVC Seats
| Use seat count for cover count.
To use a service charge to determine the number of guests, select
Discount/Service | Discount/Service Charge | Post to cover count.
To use specified menu items to determine the number of guests, select
Menu Item Classes | Price/Totals | Add to cover count. Then assign
this menu item class to the menu items that will determine the guest
count.
If none of these options is selected, the system will use the guest
count entered by employees when beginning checks as the guest
count.
