Cashier Names for Tip Analytics

To see tips broken down by staff member, each cashier needs to enter their name once in the POS modal:
  1. Enable tip on the terminal (as described above)
  2. Next time the modal opens, a prompt “Who is cashiering?” will appear automatically
  3. Enter name and tap Save
  4. Done — the name is saved for all future payments
The name is linked to the cashier’s Shopify POS login. When a different staff member logs in at the same register, their own (already saved) name is loaded. The staff breakdown is visible under Tips in the admin app and can be exported as CSV.
