Tips shared vs Tip Pooling

Today Linga has Tip Pooling and Automatic Tip Share

In certain states automatic tip sharing in illegal

In true tip sharing the Server A say "I want to give x amount to x Bartender/Runner/Host. The tip is deducuted from Server A and provided to Bartender/Runner/Host

Example:

The standard for most restaurants in Host is 1% Bartender is 1.50% and Runners 4%

Server makes $100 in tips

Host gets $1

Bartender gets $1.50

Runner gets $4

Server left over is $94.50

The way Ligna has this set up is Tip Pooling

Total of Tips for all servers, bartenders, host and runners to share the pot. 

Tip Pooling works great in Panera style QSR locations. Not in Full TSR mode.

The ability to just choose the Time (not date) that an item is going to be available on the POS and OLO.

For example:  Lunch Items should only appear from 8:30am-5:00pm (doesn't matter what day of the week).

We would like to be able to set auto gratuity by item, not just by seat count. So for instance, we may have a beverage item that shouldn’t have auto gratuity, but apply auto gratuity on food items.

Currently, when looking through the report, the cash value only reflects the cash of purchases.  I'd like to request that the refund portion of the report be migrated within the cash portion to make it easier to see the true cash. 

Example:

cash 100

refunds 25

total cash 75

With the patch that auto-closes the error message, barcode scanning errors now do not interrupt scanning.  Before, if I scanned a barcode that was not recognized, the error would prevent all other scans.  Now, if I have 10 items, if the 3rd item doesn't scan, I may not notice that 1 or other items did not get added to the check.

Currently there is no way to swipe a manager card into the employee PIN section.  The issue is most manager cards to not have the card number written on them for security reasons, so there is no way for a card to be assigned.

Can we have the quantity for the per-item print at the beginning of the item name instead of at the last line?

Ex: 1 x  Grilled

            Chicken

            Sandwich

Instead of:

            Grilled

            Chicken

         1 Sandwich        

Gets confusing with multiple items on the printout.

The transaction report is good but lacks a filter on employee and time. It currently has dates but it is not specific enough all the time. For example  Jack is doing nights shift say from the 17th to the 18th so he has sales on the 17th at night and the 18th in the morning. His next shift is from the 18th at night to the 19 th. With the current filter only on date, you will always have transactions that are linked to two shifts (in our example the 18th). With time filter you can then have only the transactions of the relevant shift.

Right now, the way we have it set up, our modifiers have 4 pre-fixes ("Add", "No", "On the side" and "Sub"). When a customer wants to add a modifier (such as avocado) hitting the pre-fix "Add" is what charges them the cost of that item; we run into issues with our online ordering because customers are clicking on only the modifier (example avocado) but they are not being forced to click any of the prefixes, therefore they aren't being charged the cost of the modifier.
Once the customer has picked their modifier (avocado, bacon, cheese etc), we need to force them to pick a pre-fix so if adding, they get charged for that modifier.
