In this case, SecureTable will skip directly to the Split Calculator screen, further below. The table number is indicated to the left of each white box. Each box displays the total amount due for the entire table, and the green Multiple Checks text indicates that this table has more than one printed checks. To select a table, simply touch the desired box.

Multiple Checks When a table containing multiple printed checks is selected, the list of available checks is displayed. On a typical payment terminal screen, up to 5 checks can be displayed at once. If there are more than 5 checks, the list can be scrolled by swiping up and down the screen. This screen will not be displayed if a table with a single check was selected, or if a check number was entered at the Check Number screen. To select a check to be paid, simply touch the corresponding box on the screen.

Split Calculator The split calculator is the step where the server discusses with the customer about how the check will be paid. The following needs to be determined: • Will the check be paid by cash or by card? • Will the check be paid in full in one payment, or in multiple payments (split)? • If the payment is to be split, will it be in equal or unequal amounts?

Paid by Cash Enable this checkbox if the customer pays with cash. If the customer pays by card, leave this box unchecked. PAY FULL Touch this button to pay the check in full. EQUAL SPLIT Touch this button to split the check amount in up to 10 equal parts. UNEQUAL SPLIT Touch this button to split the check in unequal parts. Split Calculator - Equal Split Equal split is used to divide the total check amount in up to 10 equal parts. This is useful when there is a single printed check for 2 or more customers, and they want to split the expense among themselves. After touching the EQUAL SPLIT button, select the Number of Splits. The Per Split Amount will be updated

Touch the CONFIRM button to proceed with the first payment. {% hint style="info" %} NOTE: If the amount is not equally divisible by the number of splits selected, there will be a difference of $0.01 between split amounts. In the screenshot above, dividing $45.71 by 2 creates the first split at $22.86 and the second one at $22.85. {% endhint %} Split Calculator - Unequal Split The UNEQUAL SPLIT function is used to divide the check amount in unequal parts. This is useful if the in a single printed check which multiple customers wish to pay with various amounts.

Bill Amount This section shows the total amount to be paid. Add a Tip In this section, the tip presets configured in the Tip Preset Percentages in SecureTable's advanced settings are displayed. Each percentage box also indicates the corresponding dollar amount. Touching a preset automatically adds the stated tip amount to the transaction. $ Touch the $ button to enter a custom dollar amount as tip instead of using a preset. % Touch the % button to enter a custom percentage of tip instead of using a preset. NO TIP Touch this button to skip the tip entry process altogether and leave no tip. Custom tip amount The screen below only appears if the customer touches the $ button to enter a custom tip amount.
