Adding Tips
The servers should adjust tips as soon as the customer added tips in the receipts and signed back. This is done in the Capture waiting screen. It cannot be done after that transaction is captured.
Batch Closing
Batch closing removes all transactions from the PAX device and finalized them. This is important that POS adds all tips and captures all transaction before PAX S300 closes the batch. Most of the cases Batch closes automatically in late night. POS cannot capture any open transactions after the batch has been closed.
