Improving gratuity calculation

Improved Gratuity Calculation


I. Purpose

When serving large groups, restaurants often apply a fixed gratuity rate and split it evenly among guests. However, in some cases, larger groups require more staff and a higher gratuity rate, or guests may want gratuity calculated based on each guest’s payment amount.

To address this, botX has improved gratuity calculation, allowing restaurants to:


II. Instruction Steps

1. Set up gratuity to be calculated based on the paid amount

On the management page, go to System settings → Location Settings.

Under the Purchase/Sale tab, select Gratuity and check Calculate based on paid amount.

On the POS, after clicking Pay, choose Split by guest and select the guest to collect payment from.

Click Pay, then:


2. Quickly edit the gratuity fee during payment

To allow quick gratuity edits at checkout, the restaurant manager must grant this permission.

On the management page, go to System settings → Role management.

Select the employee to grant permission to.

Under the Payment tab, check Add/Change gratuity fee by order.

On the POS, after clicking Pay, tap the Gratuity amount and enter the new fee.

Click Done to apply the change.
