Note: Do not enable Tip Processing if you are using Dial Communications and have enabled the Debit Pre-dial feature.
To enable Basic Tip Processing:
1. Set the Tip Processing parameter to On - Prompt.
2. Set the Tip % nn.nn parameter to 0.
Note: Tip Processing is skipped on Signatureless Transactions.
For more information, see Tip Processing.
Note: On Pre-Authorizations and Pre-Authorization Completions, Enhanced Tip Processing works the same way as Basic Tip Processing.
To enable Enhanced Tip Processing:
1. Set the EnhancedTipProc parameter to On.
2. Set the Tip Processing parameter to On - Prompt.
IMPORTANT: Basic Tip Processing must be enabled in order for Enhanced Tip Processing to work.
For more information, see Tip Processing.

2. Set any of the Sug Tip% 1 nn, Sug Tip% 2 nn and Sug Tip% 3 nn parameters to the desired percentage amount (e.g., for 15%, key in 15).
Note: If all three parameters are set to 0, the customer is prompted to enter a percentage amount if he/she selects the percentage option on tip prompting. If an external PINpad is connected to your terminal, the options still appear showing 0%.

To enable printing of Gratuity Guidelines:
1. Set the Gratuity Guide? parameter to On.
