Completing orders on my KDS

When I click an order on my KDS it automatically completes it 

is there a way I can click it and view it without it completing immediately

Hey there @Mirandanap1.  So, I’m a little confused.  When an order is displayed on Square KDS you can view it completely there without clicking on anything.  All items are displayed and all modifiers are displayed.  So I’m not sure what more you expect to view by “clicking on an order.”

 

Secondly, there are two forms of clearing on KDS.  The first happens when we click the top bar of an order which WILL complete the transaction and remove it from KDS.  The second happens when we click on any individual item, which will complete that item, but only complete the transaction after all items are completed.

 

Anyway, can you clarify what you are trying to view that is more than what KDS already shows?  A screen shot might help a lot.  

 

Thanks!

@Mirandanap1 Unless I’m sadly mistaken, the prioritization functionality is NOT limited to one ticket.  The Expo KDS can prioritize any tickets which will mark them as “Make Now” and move them to the front of the queue.  I’m not at my shop right now to confirm this, but the help documents say that we can prioritize orders (plural) and do not mention any limitations.

Ok great thank you for clarifying 

 

also is there a way to change the order of the tickets on my KDS, the only option I see is prioritizing one ticket to front of the line 

 

we are a busy pizza shop so we switch tickets around based on how fast we can get something out not necessarily when ticket comes in
