Credit card fraud or not?

I may not fully understand how our system works. To my knowledge, the charge is authorized expecting an appropriate tip. Anything higher than that requires a manager approval. The final amount doesn’t actually hit until the next day is what I’ve been told. Long after the server has done a checkout and has the money. With something this extreme, I figured his credit company would refuse it. Using the wrong term I guess, but that’s what I meant. Again, I don’t know much about how it all works. Forgive my ignorance. And also, as far as the manager involvement goes, negligent managers tend to just hand their card to anyone that asks for it.
