Configuring a Tender with Charged Tips

A charged tip is a gratuity added to a charge slip (for example, a credit card or room charge slip). Thus, like the meal, the tip is “charged” to a credit card or room account. A charged tip is credited to the check operator.

  1. Select the Enterprise or property, click Configuration, and then click Tender/Media.
  2. Double-click a credit card tender record to open it (for example, Visa or OPERA Room Charge).
  3. Click the Ops Behavior subtab.
  4. Select the following options:
    • 9 - Charged Tip Required

    • 10 - Post to Gross Receipts on Tip Reports

      Disabling 10 causes service charges to post to gross receipts as a negative amount on tip reports.

    • 11 - Post Amount to Charged Receipts on Tip Reports

      Disable option 11 for the OPERA Room Charge tender.

  5. Click Save.
