Thank you for choosing IDEZA - Smart Tip System!!


The "IDEZA - Smart Tip System" is by far the most Advanced Tip System found in SL.
It is packed full of options and features you won't find anywhere else.


Some quick Smart Tip Jar instructions before we start going in to details:

1) Rez your newly delivered "IDEZA - Smart Tip System - BOXED v1.x (or v2.x)".

2) The box should unpack itself after about 1-2 seconds to a folder with the same name as the box.

(Box will self delete after the contents have been delivered to you, leaving no mess behind)

3) You're welcome to look at the included notecard, but this is probably much easier to read.

4) OK, now, Rez the item named "IDEZA - Smart Tip Jar v1.x (or v2.x)", give it a quick second to register.

(Once registered, the Smart Relay server will deliver your first Smart Relay to your "Objects" folder, if you lose it, no problem, you can get another.)

5) Now that you've rezzed your first Tip Jar, lets start with just the one, it'll speed things up.

6) Take a moment to place it wherever it will be for your employees to use. (Rotate, Resize, whatever you need to do.)

Tip Jar v1.7+ For simple usage, you do NOT need to use the configuration web page.
In the owner menu, just click the "Smart Reload" button and grant debit permission.
Tip Jar v1.2 owners will still need the web page & can just click "Submit Configuration"


7) OK! Now the fun stuff! Click it! Choose the "Mode" you would like to use: Manager, DJ, Host, etc.

(If you want to set up a Donation Jar, Skip ahead to Donations Section, for now lets focus on the Primary 6 Modes.)

8) Once you selected a Mode, you will get a new pop up menu asking you to visit the configuration webpage.
Click "Go to page". Change whatever settings you would like and then click "Submit Configuration" button.

9) Now you need to accept Debit Permissions, all payments will go to you (the Owner) so, it needs to pay your employee.

10) Congratulations, you have succesfully set up your first IDEZA - Smart Tip Jar.

1) When you rezzed your first Tip Jar the Smart Relay server should have sent a Smart Relay to your "Objects" Folder.

(If for some reason, you declined the Smart Relay or didn't receive it for one reason or another, it's OK. Click the Tip Jar you set up, there will be a button named "Smart Relay", click it)

2) Rez the delivered "IDEZA - Smart Relay v1" It will tell you if the land is group owned and if it needs to be deeded.

Deeding the IDEZA - Smart Relay:


3) Right Click and Edit the Smart Relay, The Edit Window Floater should appear on your screen.

4) Click the "General" Tab if it's not already selected, There is a box labeled "Share" put a checkmark in it.

5) Verify The Correct Group is shown, just above "Share", It should be the same group as your land, Click "Deed".

(If for some reason it is not the correct group, there is a "tool" icon above "Deed" you can click and a list of groups will pop up, select the correct group, then Click "Deed")


6) Now you will get a pop up menu with a "Text Box" asking for the Club's Stream URL take a moment to find it, if needed.

7) Copy & Paste or Type it in the Text Box & Click Submit. (If you closed the Window, click the Smart Relay to get it back.)

8) That's it, you're done setting up the Smart Relay. There are a couple added features for it though.

9) Click the Relay for the Menu, you can change the delay between DJ Tip Jar log out and Resetting the Club Stream.
You also have the option to Reset the Relay in case you messed up the Club Stream URL or want to change it.

1) The simple answer: No. But, here's some information on why you should consider it.

2) The "IDEZA - Smart Relay v1" is an added feature to Automate setting your lands stream URL.

3) The Smart Relay will always reset the land stream back to the club stream, so you don't need to rely on staff to fix it.

4) It currently integrates with the DJ Tip Jar only, allowing the DJ to remotely set their stream URL.

(Using the relay, the DJ would not need a group role with permission to edit the Audio Tab to set their URL since the relay will handle it.)

5) After a DJ is done with their set, they log out of the Tip Jar, for the next DJ to log in and set up.

(If you're using the default "delay" on the Smart Relay, the club stream would begin 15 seconds after the other DJ logged out, unless new DJ put in their URL before the switch.)



If you would like to proceed with detailed customization of the Smart Tip System
Click each button below as needed for their detailed explanations.




First and foremost, if you are not sure what to do here, it's probably best not to try to do anything at all.

To properly use this section, you do NOT use your employee UUID's or set percentages for them.

The Employee will keep any percentage you don't take from them, so if you set 4 UUIDs and all set to 5 (5x4=20 & 100-20=80), employee gets 80%

This is purely for Business Partners: Owner only, Owner & Co-Owner, or Owner, Co-Owner & up to 2 managers for example.
Where any of "up to" 4 avatars would be eligible to get a small percentage of any tips paid to the tip system object.

In the percentage boxes, enter a whole number and that's all. The percentage fields should never total 100 or more.
For Example you only enter the number "5" (no quotes), Do NOT type the word "five"

If percentage totals are equal to 100%, then your employee(s) will get 0% which equals 0L$ - Not fair to the person actually doing the work
If your totals exceed 100%, anything over that 100% would come from the owners balance to pay the additional partners.
If the owner does not have an adequate balance to pay the partners, the payments will fail, but this is your own fault, do not blame iDeza for your failure to read instructions.



To properly use this section, you do NOT use your "regular" employee UUID's.

This is purely for Managers: Owner as a manager is set by default; so you can add up to 3 additional managers here.

Managers will ONLY be able to logout currently logged in employees that are using the tip jars.
The purpose of this feature is for if the employee goes AFK or crashes.
(An employee that crashes should be logged out automatically though.)



To properly use this section, you do NOT use your "regular" employee UUID's.
Be very careful and make sure you completely trust anyone you grant Co-Owner status to.

This is purely for Managers: Owner as a manager is set by default; so you can add up to 4 additional managers here.

The default Manager Menu Buttons when no employees are logged in: Login, Appearance, & Close (Co-Owner set to "No")
The "Co-Owner" Manager Menu Buttons when no employees are logged in: Login, Manage, Appearance, Change Mode, & Close
("Manage" Button will let them edit Profit Sharing, Manager UUID's, Co-Owner status, Group use option, Pay buttons, & Bot IM settings)
("Change Mode" Button will let them change the Employe "Role/Position" of the Tip Jar: Manager, DeeJay, Host, Dancer, Singer, Musician)

When an employee is logged in: Managers can only logout the currently logged in employee(s) that are using the tip jars.
The purpose of this feature is for if the employee goes AFK or crashes.
(An employee that crashes should be logged out automatically though.)



Simple, Does the user need to be in the group and wearing the group tag?

Set the Selection Dropdown to Yes if they need to wear group tag, or No if anyone can login.



This part is completely optional, but it was a requested feature, so it was added to the system.

The default pay buttons are pre-filled as 100, 200, 300, 400 & the custom field is 500.

Now for those who don't know... The Pay menu can only have 4 static buttons, the 5th field is for manual entry.

Static buttons are not changeable except when you are on the setup page or if the owner clicks the tip jar & chooses the menu option "PayButtons" to change it later.

Just keep in mind the "Custom" field can be manually entered by the person tipping your employee.
This will never be removed since tips are optional and the "tipper" shouldn't feel obligated to use a static option.



I would like to think this is the main reason you bought the Tip System but you still have the choice to turn it off.

Two simple choices here & the answers can only be Yes or No. The default answer is "Yes", some people might want them be "No"

Would you like to have our bot send a Real IM to your employees?: Simple, do you want our bot to IM your employee?

Do you want the employee to be able to override and choose no IM's?: Some employees might not like the bot sending
them an IM, you can give the employee the option to disable the feature on their own if you would like to.



Three simple choices here & the answers can only be Yes or No. The default answer is "Yes", some people might want them be "No"

Display Name of Last Tipper: The Tip Jar will show the name of the last person who tipped your employee in the hovertext above.

Display Amount of the Last Tip: The Tip Jar will show the amount that the last person had paid to the tip system.

Display Total Amount of all Tips: The Tip Jar keeps a running total of all L$ received and will display the total in hovertext above.



One of the simpler customizations that some or most people will want to use for their tip system(s).

Texture: From your inventory, right click the texture and select "Copy Asset UUID" and then paste the UUID in the UUID field.

Color: We now use a very simple color selector instead of a color vector (the vector was just too confusing for people.

Just click the "color" box, use the top portion to select a shade range and the middle area (above RGB) to choose a color range.
A few different options that can be easier:
1) Click the eye dropper and click your favorite color from a webpage or inSL.
2) Manual Entry - You can enter RGB values in each box, Click RGB to change it to HSL, Click HSL to change it to Hex.

New options in Smart Tip Jar v1.7+



You can now select some interesting border light options as well as choose how they "animate" around the Tip Jar.
Selecting "Rotate" in the dropdown, will make the light circle around the outside, selecting "Slide" is great for the top 3
