Void an item or an order

Before sending, anyone taking the order can remove items: tap − on the line, or Clear the ticket.

After sending, removing an item is a void. It needs a manager (cashiers and waiters can’t void sent items), a reason, and it’s written to the audit log. If you try without a manager, the till says A manager needs to sign in to void it.

  1. Lock the till and ask a manager to sign in with their PIN.
  2. Open the order and choose the ✕ next to the sent item.
  3. Choose a reason: Wrong item, Customer changed their mind, Kitchen problem, Quality, Entered by mistake, or type your own.

The kitchen screen shows the item struck through with VOID.

Choose Cancel order on the ticket.

  • Nothing sent yet: the order is cancelled at once.
  • Items already sent: a manager signs in and gives a reason. The kitchen’s tickets show ORDER VOIDED.
  • Anything paid on it: it can’t be cancelled. Refund instead.

Managers find voids, with who did them and why, under Reports → Voids.
