Tip out moves a share of a server tips to another staff member. Depending on how the site is configured, the POS may allocate automatically into a pool, or staff may need to do it by hand.

Steps

1. On the Room screen, tap Options, then Tip Out.
2. On the Tip tab, under Tip Out From, choose the pool to move funds from in the Pool list. The default is My Tips, the current total tips of whoever is signed in.
3. Under Tip Out To, set the Pool/Staff list to Staff.
4. In Filter Job Type, choose the job type of the person receiving the tip out. This filters the name list.
5. In Staff Name, choose the person.
6. Enter the dollar amount in the Amount box.
7. Add a note in Comment if needed.
8. Tap Tip Out, then tap OK to confirm.

When you pick a source pool, the POS shows that pool total, its tip outs so far today, and what remains. Check that number before entering an amount.
