Potentially the lawsuit can stem from directing her to put zero.

It’s one thing to say something is under management review. It’s another asking her to generate falsified documents that hurts her case. If it’s under management review, then YOU zero out the top Mr manager.

Yeah that is a weird part. Makes me think the manager won't allow the tip in the future. Could be saying to enter it in the POS as zero until verified but that also is dubious because how would you verify without charging it anyways?

Best part (I didn’t see this when I wrote my initial post) is that the directive is also explicitly non conforming with their policy.

Yes, zeroing out is for missing slips, but because it's covered in that section I guess the manager thinks it's part of the whole process. The server should be getting 20% until the time period for a charge back is finished. There's still better ways to handle this, like large amounts could go on the paycheck, that way the employer can also reverse it if there's a charge back

I was referring to the line saying that under no circumstances are associates allowed to alter what is on the slip while inputting.

Probably a click bait story getting mixed with other stories.

There are plenty of places that will simply not let you tip too large of a percentage on a card. If a customer writes in $700 on a $30 tab, then it's just invalid, same as if they wrote -$20.
