We are thrilled the NYC City Council has approved the COVID-19 Recovery Charge to help our operators through these trying times.
To accomplish this, create a non-taxable, open-priced Menu Item called COVID-19 Recovery Charge and apply that to each check in the appropriate amount. With some minor additional setup to help classify that revenue in Reports, you'll be up and running in no time!
