Take a pre-order with a deposit

Steps

1. On the register, add the items as usual (choose sizes and options).
2. Select the customer (or add a new one with name and phone).
3. Choose pre-order and set the pickup date and time — and the pickup location if you have several shops.
4. Take the deposit: enter the amount (or percentage per your policy) and the payment method.
5. Finish. The order is saved as partially paid; the customer copy shows the deposit, the balance and the pickup date.

Tips

• Say the deposit policy out loud on big orders; it is also printed on the receipt footer.
• For custom cakes, use a custom cake order so the decorator gets the notes and photo.
• At pickup, see collect the balance.
