Reopen Closed Checks – New Order and Pay Update

Before integrating pre-auth at my bar, I wanted my team to get some time with the new interface with "Order & Pay" – Instead of a "checks" tab, there's an "orders" tab. Although all of my settings for reopening a closed check are correct in the dashboard, I cannot reopen a closed check from the transaction tab. The button is literally gone. I found one loophole, but it's not 100%. Under the orders tab, you can view open, paid, and closed checks. If you can find the check there, you can hit the 3 dots on the top right corner and you have the option to reopen the check. However, in the two most recent cases, the check I was looking for was not listed in the paid or closed tab. Many other checks were, but not the ones I needed. Every check is easily found in transaction. Is this a glitch or am I missing something? For now, I am refunding and re-ringing. Not ideal. Help is much appreciated.

 

Side note: we don't do any online orders, and I wish they would keep online ordering feature upgrades out of the restaurant app unless you want to add it. We have been patiently waiting for pre-auth for years and unfortunately I am forced to use this new "Order & Pay" upgrade to use it.

Sorry for the delay here, I've been out.  @brosen this is the new way of re-opening checks since the "order revamp" has taken place.

Hey @brosen  - Thanks for your patience. You should be able to search for checks, but I’m tagging some experts who can provide further guidance. Let me know if you need anything else!

During service tonight the "Reopen Check" per your instructions was completely gone. There was no way to open a check and we were forced to issue a refund instead. After doing that, the adjusted transaction did not allow for a tip to be entered so my staff also lost the tip. Please address this glitch immediately. I love that Square makes improvements but there are always so many glitches following new releases.
