Regarding the
sale of Gift Certificates on the new POS system:
Please Note: You must ring Gift Certificates up separately from all other items.
In other words, you cannot sell Gift Certificates with other items which are taxable.
With the new system, there is currently no designed method of selling
gift certificates. We are planning to create a gift card program soon
which will take the place of paper gift certificates. There is, however,
a temporary work around.
1. Go into Manager Mode and select "Tax Free".
-Tax will be collected when the Gift Certificate is brought back to be redeemed.
2. When prompted for an "EIN" number, type in exactly TEN number ONES (1).
3. Enter stock #0003 and the description will show "Gift Certificates".
4. Complete the sale as normal, entering the quantity of GC they are purchasing.
5. The price will be the amount that the Gift Certificate is sold for.
Note:
Any merchandise purchased with Gift Certificates is taxable.
Gift Certificates, when redeemed, are treated as a form of payment, like cash, checks, or credit cards.
