**Does Tip Deduction apply to Auto Gratuity?**  
 No. Tip Deduction applies only to tips. Auto Gratuity is added to the order total before payment is collected, so Tip Deduction is not applied to the Auto Gratuity amount.

**Does Tip Deduction apply to credit card tips?**  
 Yes. Tip Deduction applies to credit card tips. It does not apply to Auto Gratuity because Auto Gratuity is added to the bill before payment is collected.

## **Tips**

- If the **Adjust Tip** button is grayed out, verify that the order was closed using a credit card payment method.
- Confirm you are logged in under the correct employee profile.
- Verify that End of Day has not already been completed.
- If the transaction does not appear in Closed Orders, confirm that the order was fully closed.
- If a tip adjustment fails to save, retry after a few seconds and verify the terminal has an active internet connection.
