Charges Tab

You can configure the service charge that will be automatically applied to all the tickets. In the same way, you can set default tips shown to the ticket. In case a store pays certain % more in overtime hours, it can add that rule here.
Tax group. This % of taxes to all the products in the store. If items has different taxes, you can ignore it. If any item has a different tax group, it will ignore store wise tax.
Items included sales tax is useful for countries like the UK where the price includes tax.
