Service Charge

A service charge is a type of product that you can add to a sale. Instead of specifying a fixed price, you add a service charge as a percentage to a sale. When a service charge is added to a sale, the price is calculated by multiplying the total sale amount by the specified percentage.

To create a service charge, go to ROBOTILL Back Office > Home > Products & Stock > Products. Click on New.

1. Select 'Service Charge'

3. Enter a stock code or barcode number
