Working with online orders
When a customer places an online order, the order is sent to the Back Office. Each POS device checks the Back Office periodically to see if any new orders have been received. When a new online order is found, a new online order alert will appear at the top-right corner of the screen. The number on the new order alert box icon indicates the number of new online orders received.

📝 This option appears only if you have a kitchen printer configured. - Tap Cancel to cancel the order.
📝 This option cancels the sale but does not refund the customer. You need to contact your third party order provider to request a refund for the cancelled order. - Tap Close if you do not wish to take any action on the order.

After you view the order, it is marked as processed and will no longer appear in the new order alert box. To view processed orders, tap Recall or Reprint from the ticket entry screen and select the Orders tab.
📝 If you have multiple POS devices, once an online order is processed on one device, it is marked as processed on the other POS devices too. This prevents the order from getting processed again in other devices.
