Taking tips allows your customers to show their appreciation for what your instructors do and immediately reward those that are going above and beyond. You can take tips from two places: The Appointment Schedule and POS.
From the Appointment Schedule
To take tips from an appointment schedule page, locate the unpaid appt, click it, then click pay. You'll see an option to add a tip.
From POS
To use the tip feature in POS, add the item first (class, appt, etc), then click Add tip.
This will pull up a pop up that gives preselected amounts for easy tipping. Have the customer select one and it auto-calculates the tip based on the cost of the item. In this case the item cost $60, the tip chosen was 15%, and amount calculated displays $9.54.
After clicking Add to cart, the tip shows as a new line item.
Change the preset percentages shown to the customer
Update your tipping percentage options from Settings > General Set-up > scroll down the bottom where you'll find Tipping.
Tipping amounts will show in the Combined Payroll report
The Combined Payroll Report has its own tips section down at the bottom of an individual teacher's report.
To see this, click Analytics > Reports > search Combined Payroll > click on a teacher > scroll to the bottom.
And since tips are typically taxed, you can choose the tax rate for tips from Settings > Tax Settings.
