In some businesses, they may charge an additional fee to the customer.
For example, a “Service Charge” fee is charged for restaurant for the dining customers.
Also, some businesses charge customers an additional transport fee for transporting the goods.
The POS system is able to perform these additional fees charged through the “Other Charge” section.
In the POS System, there are two types of CHARGES. The first one is “Added to the receipt”. Other one is “Included in the receipt”.
Under the ‘added to the receipt’ charge, the fee will be added to the receipt during the billing process.
Under the ‘included in the receipt’ charge, the fee is already included in the total value.
