Tip-sharing workflow for payroll-based operations

Tip-sharing is possible for payroll-based operations.

1. Staff arrive at the cinema and clock in to the relevant work area (either their Rostered Work Area or a selected Work Area).
   Note: The Work Area determines whether the staff are contributing and/or receiving tips for a particular Tip Share Period.
2. At the end of their shift, staff cash up their POS sessions and then clock out.
3. The tip sharing amounts are calculated as part of the cash up. For contributors, Tip Sharing Contributions are printed on the Cashup Slip.
4. In the Tip Share module, the manager opens the Tip Share Contribution page to review the tip contributions at the end of the Tip Share Period or payroll period.
5. (Optional) If required, the manager makes corrections to the Staff Time data. This is may be needed if, for example, staff forget to clock out or clocked into the wrong Work Area.
6. On the Tip Share Distribution page, the manager calculates the distribution amounts based on the configured calculation method.
7. The manager checks that all the tip distributions have been finalized for all the days in the payroll period before running the payroll extract.
8. The Tip Share Distribution amounts are included in staff paychecks.
