Point of Sale (POS) Glossary
A guest count is a record of the number of customers in a group on the same receipt. For example, at a restaurant, the guest count would represent all of the people sitting at a table who are on the same check. At a mini-golf location, the guest count might include all of the people in a group playing together. At a bowling alley, an entire team might pay together at the POS terminal for a group rate.
The guest count may be important for situations where the business automatically includes a gratuity for the waitstaff when there are a certain number of people at the table. Some establishments might also give a discount for groups, so they would also want their point of sale system to keep track of the number of patrons.

Should You Collect Charitable Donations?
You’ve probably been at the register at the grocery store and asked if you wanted to contribute money to a charity as you checked out. Maybe you donated, or perhaps you found it was annoying. It might have depended on your mood that day, or possibly the charity was a deciding factor.
