My coworkers would always tell me that when I worked in restaurants, but I never really figured it out with my A.D.D. brain and being distracted with serving customers. Now that I see it written out, that is helpful!

The transaction remains open until the end of the shift. At the end of the shift, the checks are closed out with the updated tip amount included in the final charge.

Going back to the picture…thanks, now I have to confirm the restaurants math is correct and I’m bad at math.
