When a credit card payment is made, it should be done from one of the Main POS stations. Process the partial card payment at the POS when the order is taken (if that's when the card payment is made), or when the driver returns (if the driver is processing the cards). Once the card has been processed, then have the driver check the deliveries in at the driver station. Only the remaining cash balance will be needed to complete the order.

Another way, to do this (but the above is the proper way) would be if your drivers are the ones processing the cards while out on the delivery, have them hold on to the card slips and turn them in as part of what is owed at the end of the night.

It all depends on when the partial credit card payment is being made. Generally card orders placed over the phone should be paid for right then and there by the cashier taking the order, not the driver later.

We have our drivers cash out at the end of their shift, instead of after each delivery.

The order is..
1. Enter Checks at CASH OUT on Main POS
2. Enter Credit Card Tips on Main POS
3. Check out orders on Delivery Module
4. Check in orders on Delivery Module
5. Check the Delivery Report for total. "Driver Owes" is in RED, and they can see the -$5.00 for the Credit Card Tips, on the orders.
6. Make the Driver Drop (which prints a drop slip)
7. Check the Delivery Report again, the "Driver Owes" should be $0.00 and GREEN.

If the driver has another order after that, they can use the same report again to see what else they owe. They were trying to do it some complicated way, but using the "Driver Drops" helps make the computer do the math.

Sure, our "delivery times" aren't a real stat. But. We found it to be more simple than trying to have everyone use the computers constantly. We typically have 1 delivery driver, sometimes 2. So, it's not very hard to go thru the list and select all their orders in a Batch.
