Tip types are used to identify the different kinds of tips employees can receive, such as cash tips or tips received on credit cards:
To add tip types:
- Go to Pay Setup > Tips.
- In the Tip Type tab, click Add.
- Enter a name and, optionally, a description for the tip type.
- In the Pay Adjustment Code drop-down list, select the pay code Dayforce should use for this tip type. The pay code you select controls whether users can record a dollar amount, an hours amount, or either, when recording tips as pay adjustments. Typically, users record tips as a dollar amount, so you should select a pay code that is configured with Amount Only selected in the Time/Amount Entry Mode drop-down list. See Pay Codes.
- Note: Because employees already received their cash tips, the pay code for cash tips should be configured to use an unpaid pay category. Conversely, Dayforce needs to pay the employee the amount for tips from credit cards, so that pay code should use a paid pay category.
- (Optional) In the Clock Code field, enter the clock code that the clock should use for this tip type.
- (Optional) If there is a transaction fee associated with this tip type, enter the percentage of the fee in the Transaction fee field. Dayforce deducts this percentage from tips employees record using that tip type.
- Click Save.
