Enhancements

    • When applicable, service charge and tax will now be displayed in the cart

    • The order Total will now be displayed in the cart (subtotal + service charge + tax) instead of the Subtotal

  • Tax on orders can now be exempted - See SkyTab Venue Exempt Tax for more details on this feature

    • Requires manager approval

    • Tax exemptions are initiated from the cart (for non-tabs menus) and from the tender selection screen (for tabs menus) 

    • When exempting tax, an exemption reason must be entered

    • Only exclusive tax may be exempted

    • Once tax is exempted from an order, it cannot be reapplied

    • If tax is exempted from an order, the tax line on receipts will display “Exempt” as the value

  • Previously authorized cards on a tab can now be used when closing the tab to multiple tenders

  • Improved the handling of CFD disconnections on the POS
