Divisions Category

Each division is associated with one out of 30 possible categories of broader report purposes. For example, food and liquor are common categories.

To create or edit a category name, select the category number. The Category screen displays.

Description

Each division is grouped under a sales reporting category. You may define a maximum of 30 categories, and print sales reports by category. The categories you create with this option are used in the Division option's "Category" field.

NOTE: This field is for information and will only show on the server's financial report.

Printed on the check

Enable this option to include a summary by division categories on the guest check. As well, within the Invoice branch of Point of Sale Control / Employee / Configuration, the Division Category On Check option must be enabled.

Pop and Snack Category

Enable this option for items on which the Regular tax always applies in areas where a Basic Meal tax exemption is available.

Pop and Snack Eligible

Enable this option for all Division Categories that are eligible to a meal tax exemption.

NOTE: This option will become available only if the Pop and Snack Category option is also enabled.

NOTE: In such an area, you can apply a Special Tax below a certain check total, except for items in this particular Divisions Category.

To use this threshold, in Point of Sale Control / Payments / Taxes / Rate, for the Regular tax applied by default, enter the threshold amount in the Minimum Taxable field and select the Exemption tax in the Special Tax list. For the Exemption tax, enter 0 in the Minimum Taxable field and select the Regular tax in the Special Tax list.

In Point of Sale Control / Revenue Center / Options, disable the Special Tax of all Modes.

Under the C:\Posera\MaitreD\Data directory, in the Miscellaneous section of the BO.ini file, add the following configuration key & value:

SpecialTax=401

where 401 is the amount of cents the check total will be compared with to determine if the Regular or Exemption tax should apply.
