Payment Settings

Organization-level defaults for methods, forms, and verification behavior.

Payment settings help staff register payments faster and more consistently. Settings pre-fill forms. They do not enforce rules.

Recommended for most studios

Auto-verify online payments, and manually verify offline payments.


Offline Payment Methods

Offline payment methods are defined per organization and used when registering offline payments.

  • They are labels only
  • They do not contain accounting logic

Keep method names short and operational (Cash, Terminal, Bank transfer).

Where to manage settings:

  • Settings → Organization → Payment Settings (defaults + verification)
  • Settings → Organization → Offline Payment Methods (method labels)

Defaults

In Payment Settings, you can configure defaults such as:

  • Default offline payment method
  • Default tax behavior
  • Default verification behavior
  • Salary period start day

These settings reduce repetitive data entry and improve consistency across staff.

Salary Period Start Day

The salary period start day defines how TatTool groups salary periods across months.

For example, a start day of 25 means the period runs from Jan 25 – Feb 24.


Auto-Verification

You can choose to auto-verify:

  • Online payments (recommended for most studios)
  • Offline payments (only if you have strong operational controls)

If offline payments are auto-verified, they will immediately affect revenue insights when recorded.

Operational impact

If you enable auto-verify for offline payments, a simple data-entry mistake can immediately affect revenue numbers. Only enable this if your offline process is very controlled.


Common recommendations:

  • Auto-verify online payments (Stripe)
  • Require manual verification for offline payments
  • Keep offline method names short and operational (Cash, Terminal, Bank transfer)
