Tips
Report Guide for Users
What this report shows, the choices you make when running it, and how to read each section.
What this report is for
The Tips report lists tips by employee for a date range, so you can see how much each employee received in tips and confirm whether those tips have been paid out.
The date range on this report filters on the tip cash-out date — when the tip was processed for payout — not the original transaction date the tip was given on.
How the report works
The report lists every tip cash-out within your date range, at the location(s) you select, filtered to the tip status(es) you choose.
The choices you make when running it
These are the settings available. Everything else is calculated automatically.

| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Start Date | The beginning of the date range you want to report on, based on the tip cash-out date. |
| End Date | The end of the date range you want to report on. |
| Start Hour / Minute / Second | The exact time of day the range should start on your Start Date. Defaults to the very start of the day. |
| End Hour / Minute / Second | The exact time of day the range should end on your End Date. Defaults to the very end of the day. |
