SmartKDS - Returned Items Overview
Returned items have always been an inefficient part of the paper docket system
When an item is returned, it is a manual process to change the qty on the original paper docket
SmartKDS provides efficiencies in the kitchen by automatically updating the original table order with the reduced qty
Returned Item Workflow - SmartPOS
Open an existing table transaction with saved items
Highlight the product to be returned
Click on "clear" or the "minus" function button
This will display a "Returned Item" docket on SmartKDS with the Table No, and the product being returned
If there is a live docket currently on SmartKDS, it will now display an **Order Updated** banner along the top
The product qty will also be adjusted
N.B - If a product has been adjusted that results in a quantity of zero, the product will not be stricken out. It will simply have the quantity number removed. This can be misleading in a busy environment and should be pointed out to the customer on setup
