6 | Processing a Split Bill Payment

This article demonstrates two ways of processing Split Bill Payments in SmartPOS

This article demonstrates two ways of processing Split Bill Payments in SmartPOS:

1. Singular: Process the amount of the entire Table Transaction 
2. Separate: Process the number of separate Bills created through individual Transactions 

Prerequisites 

• To access Split Bill Features, the applicable Operator Privileges   will need to be enabled 
• Operator Maintenance 'Till Privileges' Tab
  
• General: "Operate Tills" Flag
• Tables: "Table Sales" Flag
• Tables: "Table Payments" Flag
• Venue Maintenance "Flags" Tab
• Table Groups: "Ask Seat" Flag
• Table Groups: "Ask #Guests" Flag 
• Table Groups: "Ask Splits as Guests" Flag

Processing as a Single Payment

1. To process a Singular Payment, the Operator will have to be viewing the Transaction out of the Split Bill Screen on the Standard SmartPOS Workstation Home Screen 
2. In the following example, a table has been created into splits of three (3) and has been allocated with products 

        3. Although products have been allocated to individual splits, in order to pay as a singular payment, navigate back to the respective table home screen

        4. This can be done by tapping on the table through the Table Map and Table List functions 

        5. From here, tap on the Pay Function and the Operator will receive a prompt advising them that the Table has been Split and asking if they would like to continue to Tender; select Yes

        6. The Payment Window will then open to Process the Amount for the entire Transaction where the Operator can continue with the Payment as usual 

Processing as Separate Payments 

1. To process payments separately for each individual Split, the Operator will need to be in the Split Bill screen 
2. Tap on the desired Split Table which will then change in appearance from having  a gray background to having a white background

         3. With the Desired Split selected, tap the Payment Key which will open the Payment window to Process only the Amount of the Split

         4. Select the desired payment methods and then continue the payment as usual 

        5. After Payment has been Tendered for a Split, the background will change to a Tan color

        6. Upon Tendering the Payments for the Splits, a prompt will appear after the Final Split has been paid to notify the Operator that the table is Paid in full

        7. After this, the Table will now be closed
