4. Receipt cancellation and refund
❌ Receipt cancellation in Goovii
Receipt cancellation is used when a receipt has been created but the payment has not yet been completed.
For example: the receipt was created by mistake or the guest decided not to place the order.
📍 How to cancel a receipt in the terminal?
- Find the required open receipt in the list
- Click on the three dots next to the receipt number
- Select the cancellation reason in the additional window
📝 Cancellation reasons
You need to select one of the available reasons:
- Guest left
- Staff mistake
- Already paid
- Paid by the establishment
Please note: if the reason “Paid by the establishment” is selected, this operation will be reflected in the sales report as an expense covered by the business.
✅ Completing the cancellation
After selecting the reason, click the “Confirm cancellation” button.
The receipt will be canceled and removed from the list of active receipts.
⚠ Important to remember
- Cancellation is only possible before the payment is completed
- After fiscalization, the process is handled differently (via refund)
- Select the reason carefully — it affects analytics and reporting
Proper cancellation handling helps maintain transparent statistics and avoid discrepancies in reports 📊
