Put a bill on Pay later
Let a customer you know pay another day, as an invoice they owe or as a bill held for them.
On this page
Use Pay later when a customer you know will pay another day. You choose how: an Invoice (a sale today, which the customer owes) or Hold sales (the bill kept for the customer, not a sale today).
Before you start
- Putting a bill on Pay later is a manager's right. Without it, a manager types their PIN in the window.
The Pay later window
Tan Ah Kow
- Search: the customer's name, phone or code, or scan their QR. Tap them in the list.
- New customer: add one with a name and a phone.
- The customer: what they owe now, their limit and their oldest unpaid invoice.
- Invoice: the bill is paid today with Pay later; the customer owes it.
- Hold sales: the bill is kept for the customer and the table is freed. It is paid when they come back.
- Put RM 45.00 on Pay later: puts it on. With Hold sales it says Hold for Tan Ah Kow.
Put the bill on Pay later
- In the payment window, press Pay later under the payment methods (on Android, at the top).
- Find the customer and tap them.
- Under How, tap Invoice or Hold sales.
- If manager boxes show, a manager types their PIN.
- Press Put RM 45.00 on Pay later (or Hold for Tan Ah Kow).
An Invoice closes the bill and prints the invoice, by default twice: the shop's copy, for the customer to sign, and the customer's copy. A Hold sales frees the table and says Held for Tan Ah Kow: RM 45.00, not a sale today. Find it under Pay later / Deposit.
Add a new customer
- Press New customer.
- Type the Name and the Phone. Nothing else is kept, never an IC number.
- Press Save customer.
If another customer has that phone, the POS asks Is this them?: press Use this customer, or Save as a new customer anyway.
If something goes wrong
- This customer is blocked: Pay later is refused.: take payment another way.
- Over the limit: RM 641.50 owed after this, the limit is RM 500.00. A manager must approve.: a manager types their PIN in the window, then press Put RM 45.00 on Pay later.
- Save & Fire first: a hold sale is food that has left the kitchen. under Hold sales: press Save & Fire on the bill, then open Pay later again.
