A discount on one item

Tap the line on the ticket.
Press Item Discount (the % button).
Choose Percentage or Fixed Amount and type the number (10 means 10%).
Press Apply Discount.

Quicker: type the number on the keypad, select the line and press % off or EGP off.

The discount shows under the item, with the old price struck through. An item discount cannot be larger than the line's price.

A discount or service charge on the whole ticket

Press Apply Discount under the ticket (or Ctrl+D). You will find:

Quick Discounts — the discounts a manager has set up (such as "10% Discount", "20% Discount", "Staff Discount"). One tap applies it.
Charges — such as "Service 12%".
Or enter custom discount — a percentage or amount you type yourself.

The order Major calculates in

Discounts come off the subtotal first (an item discount inside the line's price, a ticket discount as its own line).
The service charge is worked out on the amount after the discount.
VAT is worked out on (subtotal − discount + service charge).

The ticket: an item discount, a 12% service charge and VAT after them

In the picture: Om Ali 2 × 50 = 100, less 10% = 90. Turkish coffee 2 × 25 = 50. Subtotal 140. Service 12% = 16.80. VAT 14% on (140 + 16.80) = 21.95. Grand Total 178.75 EGP.
