Symptom
Cashier staff need a consistent way to find orders, record payment, print receipts, close orders, and keep daily totals understandable.
For: Restaurant owners, cashier staff, managers, and agencies using WordPress for local restaurant operations.
Diagnosis
What to check before changing the site
Manual Payment Boundary
For the local free workflow, payment is recorded by staff. External payment checkout or hosted processing should not be implied.
Correction Path
Cashiers need a clear process for wrong table, cancelled item, unpaid order, duplicate ticket, or mistaken payment method.
Daily Totals Depend On Discipline
Daily reporting is only useful when orders are closed consistently and staff understand what each payment status means.

Diagnosis
Symptoms, causes, checks, and fixes
Symptoms
- Cashiers cannot tell whether a QR order has been paid, closed, or still needs staff action.
- Manual orders and table orders are handled differently in reports.
- Receipt printing or daily totals do not match staff expectations.
Most Common Causes
- Local restaurant operations need payment recording, not just order intake.
- Manual orders, table QR orders, kitchen status, receipt printing, and reports must share a clear order state.
- The free local Restaurant Hub workflow does not process online card payments; it records cashier/POS payment activity.
How To Confirm The Cause
- Test manual order creation, QR table order lookup, payment recording, receipt printing, order status changes, and daily report totals.
- Define who can record payment, close orders, print receipts, and correct mistakes.
- Check staff roles and device/browser printer behavior before live use.
Fixes
- Write a cashier checklist for opening, active service, payment recording, receipt printing, corrections, and closing.
- Keep payment method labels and close-order rules simple enough for service staff.
- Document any external payment terminal steps separately from WordPress payment recording.
How To Verify The Fix
- Run test orders for cash, card-terminal-recorded, unpaid, cancelled, and corrected cases where applicable.
- Compare cashier screen, kitchen state, receipt output, and daily report totals.
- Review the first live service and update staff instructions based on actual bottlenecks.
When To Contact Support
Escalate when cashier workflow needs integrated card processing, fiscal receipt requirements, tax compliance, accounting export, or external POS integration.
