What’s Changing?
Introduction of a new permission that restricts users from being able to amend the calculations of tronc payments allocated to employees.
Release date: 14th May 2020
Reason for Change
If troncmasters are responsible for deciding how money is distributed, it may not be appropriate for Managers or Assistant Managers to have the access to make changes to the amounts allocated. This will also help customers to manage their tronc payments within HMRC guidelines.
HMRC’s guidance on Tronc Funds can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/employee-gets-tips-gratuities-or-service-charges-through-a-tronc
Customers Affected
All Tronc 2 customers.
