For the Check Owner, on the General Settings page in BO:
If Check Creator is selected: if an Employee opens a Check and Tip is applied to the Check which is Active, then another Employee logs in and closes the Check - the Tip on the Check will be credited to the Employee who opened the Check.
If Check Closer is selected: the Tip will be applied to the Employee who closed the Check.
It will impact the Sale Summary and Sale Recap reports.
This scenario is compatible with all Service Types except QSR.
