The Payments list

Give a refund

Managers and owners (roles with the refund permission) refund on their own. Cashiers can ask for a refund too, but a manager must approve it (see below).

  1. Open the payment you are refunding.
  2. Choose Refund. The page shows the most you can refund.
  3. Type the amount and a reason, then choose Refund now.
  4. Hand over the money in the same method if it was cash.

Refunds by a cashier with a manager's PIN

When a cashier chooses Refund now, DishRoute asks a manager to approve. The manager chooses their name and types their 4 to 6 digit PIN on the same device, and the refund goes through. A wrong PIN shows an error in the box, and five wrong PINs lock that manager's PIN for 5 minutes. The refund records both people: the cashier who asked and the manager who approved. The order timeline shows "Approved by", and so does the refund slip.

Owners control this in Settings, Payments:

  • Cashiers can refund with a manager's PIN (on by default). Switch it off and only managers and owners can refund.
  • Largest refund a PIN can approve (optional). A cashier cannot refund more than this, even with a PIN. Leave it empty for no limit.

A refund is a new record. Your reports show both the payment and the refund, and the original is never edited. You can print a Refund slip.

Note

Taking items off an order after the kitchen started, or giving a discount, needs a manager to approve it with their PIN. See add staff and choose their roles.
