Split checks - move items between checks
Summary
An adjustment may be applied to either an item or a check:
Item-level adjustment
An item can be adjusted (comp, discount, etc.) as an item-level adjustment.
When moving an item from a discounted check to a non-discounted check, the item keeps any discounts it received from the discounted check.
When moving an item from a non-discounted check to a discounted check, the item does not change.
When moving an adjusted item to an adjusted check, the item does not change.
Check-level adjustment
An entire check can be adjusted as a check-level adjustment.
When moving an item from a discounted check to a non-discounted check, the item keeps any discounts it received from the discounted check.
Purpose
Adjustments allow the business to reduce the individual price of an item or to reduce the price of an entire check (effectively reducing all the items on the check). Items can be moved between checks; the item does not change its discounted or non-discounted state when moved.
Scenarios
Item-level Adjustment
When an adjustment is applied to an item, the item can be moved to another check that is not adjusted. The item-level-adjusted item will retain the adjustment when it is moved to a new check that is not adjusted.
Four items are ordered and split evenly into two checks
An item on check #1 is discounted $1- Select item, tap Discount, enter amount of discount, tap Apply
The item is moved to check #2 - Tap Check #1 to display items in left panel, tap discounted item, tap Check #2 to move item
Result: The item retains the item-level discount.
Check adjustment
When an adjustment is applied to a check, an item can be moved to the check from another check. The item will not change from its original state .
Four items are ordered and split evenly into two checks
Check #1 is comp'd (at check level, not individual item level)
An item from Check #2 is moved to the comp'd Check #1
Result: The item doesn't change.
When two checks are adjusted differently, an item moved from one check to another will not change.
Four items are ordered and split evenly into two checks
Check #1 is comp'd
Check #2 is discounted
An item moved from check #1 (comp'd) to check #2 (discounted) will not change and will remain comp'd.
An item moved from check #2 (discounted) to check #1 (comp'd) will not change and will remain discounted.
