Hi @OurCupCakery. Tips are a check-level add on, not tied to any item or category. Therefore there are no Square reports that would do this. You could accomplish this yourself by downloading both the Transactions CSV and the Item Details CSV, merging them and then pro-rating each transaction’s tips however you would like between the items. But this would be a manual thing.

I’m curious, so I’m going to ask. Exactly what are you trying to accomplish with such a number? I’m just having some difficulty figuring out how this stat would be useful. 😏
