How do i track refires/remakes for inventory purposes?

im trying to figure our how to ring in refire/remakes into my POS (ipad, sometimes iphone). the reason is for inventory tracking. say i have 50 pizzas for today, and i have an accident and drop 1 or mess up the order, how can i remove the 1 from the inventory of 50 without going into the item details mid service to adjust?

 

running a small but extremly busy popup so i dont have time to do this mid service. the only way i can think of now is either a 100% discount button which is how i currently do, or a "comp" which is a setting i just found and havent tried.

 

but i was hoping there was a way to ring them in as a refire/remake.

@MalaSuerteFood What you are doing, but just call it a 100% discount and call it refire/remake etc.  You can always pull a discount report, but your inventory will be accurate.  The only thing that is skews is gross sales, but I don't watch that number as much as net sales.

Hi there @MalaSuerteFood I see this is your first post. Welcome, we’re so happy to have you here! 😊

 

Based on what you shared, I can see why you’d want to remove the item quickly. I think it is great that you discovered the discount workaround. Comps or voids can also be useful in situations like this as well. 

 

I will lean on some of our Square Champions for guidance: @StevenCheech @tulanejeff @vladslavskii @balmonte @Donnie-M 

 

If you need any additional help, please don’t hesitate to reach out again!
