When you delete orders from the document list, a confirm permanent deletion prompt appears. This prompt has an integrated filter wizard. Only orders with the Not ready status can be deleted.

When you delete orders, you must specify whether or not closed guest tabs are to be reopened; you must also indicate which associated documents and operations must be deleted: bills, receipts, guest tabs, fiscal registrations, and authorisation operations.

If you fail to do so, the order(s) will not be deleted.

The Promotion recalculation window is used to calculate the guest tab total for a given order, taking into account the guest tab itself, the order items, and all applicable promotion categories.

Orders are generally managed in Tillypad XL POS. However, orders and order items can also be managed in Tillypad XL Manager using the specification panel of a guest tab.
