Aloha Event Deposit set up help

[bwalk]

So just set up a menu item named "Deposit" to be able to take advanced payment for a deposit for an event. I just want to know for sure if I mark the box "Revenue Item" under general settings that it will not tax, regardless if I leave the tax field as "no tax" or "tax."

Secondly, to be able to apply the deposit on the day of the event, I have a deposit tender set up, but for whatever reason I cannot get it to appear in my tenders on the POS after multiple attempts at designing the tender screen with row and column numbering placement, and the little drop down screen button placement design feature to the right of the button position line (has three little dots on the right).

I want to be able to properly apply this deposit with the final bill taxed correctly. Help!

IS the tender marked as active?
As for Tax on the deposit button, if you mark as no tax it will have no tax, if you mark as none, you will get error when you verify data.

Thanks AlohaRoss,

I actually found that the Deposit button was on the tender screen afterall, but for whatever reason the button image is the "$1.00" Nothing I see in the button image line is selected. The button is active as well.

Thanks for mentioning the possible error in the tax if marked none. I didn't know that. So if it isn't taxed when the deposit is run, how do I make sure that there is tax when we deduct this from the total bill on the day of the event?

Look in your bmp folder. You will fund trd###.bmp. the $1 is the same tender id as your deposit. Rename it or delete it. Do same on all foh terms dor deposit to show up. OR endit image in mspaint. Do not change size but you can chnage image to Deposit.

Tax is assigned when you ring in sales. The depost is just money collected to be applied to a future sale. So you do not worry about the deposit being taxed
