Andy,

Quote:In short and making assumption regarding the $1., that it is to be deducted from the commission ... Helios will calculate the Rate of 50% first and then apply the FEE of in this case of -$1. Thus a commission of $9. ... if you want the $1.00 deduction first then 50% ... then set the fee to -.50 and the commission with be $9.50

Yes - lets apply the fee after the calculation, so the commission is $9.00.

On the tip situation I figure there are 2 ways to do it at this point. One is (like you stated) to give the performer 100% commission. The down side to this is the performer will have to wait untill payday to recieve the tip and also have to pay taxes on it. If I do this I'll have a walk out on my hands.

The second is what I've been doing and that is to sell the tip with no commission and pull the cash from the till and give it to the performer. Major pain on the books.

Any ideas anyone?
