How do I fix an unassigned tip on a gift card or package sale?

This article shows you how to fix an unassigned tip specifically for sales that only have gift cards and packages.

Tips can be assigned to a staff member for sales with services or products. If a client tips for a sale with a gift card or package, you will get an unassigned tip warning.

In order to fix it, a service needs to be added so that a staff member can be selected. You can either use any existing service with a zero-value or create a dummy service like "Tip Assignment".

Option #1: Adding a $0 service

• Use the "..." button to Reopen the sale.

• Add any service.

• Update the price to $0.00.

• Confirm that the staff member assigned this service is the same one who should receive the unassigned tip.

• Use the Go to Payments and Complete buttons to close the sale.

• The sale should now be updated with the tip assigned to the staff member.

Option #2: Use a "Tip Assignment" service

Adding the "Tip Assignment" Service

Note: You must be an admin or have permission to manage services to do this.

• Go to Settings > Services

• Add a New Category for Tip Assignment.

• Add a New Service called Tip Assignment. Set the price to $0.00.

Updating the sale with the "Tip Assignment" service

On the Sales screen, select the sale and use the "..." button to Reopen the sale.

• Add the Tip Assignment service.

• Confirm that the staff member assigned this service is the same one who should receive the unassigned tip.

• Use the Go to Payments and Complete buttons to close the sale.

• The sale should now be updated with the tip assigned to the staff member.
