Depending on the situation, merchants can cancel transactions and return payments by performing either voids or refunds. Voiding occurs with open or saved orders before batching out a register. Refunds occur after a register has batched out.

Voiding Open or Saved Orders

Void open or saved orders from the Register. Open orders cannot be voided if any partial payments have been made.

    1. From Home, tap Register.
    2. Tap Get Order. The Open Orders screen displays.
    3. Select a saved order from the list, and then tap Void Order at the bottom.
    4. After selecting Yes, a splash screen displays. Select a Reason from the dropdown or enter a reason in the Note field.
    5. Click OK. A pop-up displays verifying the order was voided successfully.


Voiding Payments Before Batching Out

Void orders and payments before batching out restaurant or retail registers. Voids can be performed without a card being present.

  1. From Register, tap the Local Menu.
  2. Select Refund. The Refunds screen displays.
  3. Select Find Order.
  4. Select an order with one or more items to void.
  5. When the itemized order displays, select the items to be refunded and tap Void.
  6. Select a reason for the void or enter a reason in the Note field, then tap OK.
  7. A receipt prints displaying the voided payment amount.



Refunding Payments After Batching Out

Merchants can also void closed transactions and issue partial or full refunds. Voids delete sales from the system while refunds are handled as new transactions. Credit or debit cards are required to process refunds.
