Sales can be suspended for later completion as either a Layaway, which deducts items from inventory, or an Estimate, which does not deduct items from inventory.


Start a Suspended Sale

Suspend a sale when you need to pause the transaction and return to it later without losing items or details. Follow the steps below:

  1. From Dashboard, click the Sales tab.

  2. Begin a sale and add items.

  3. Click Suspend Sale button.


    Choose either:

    • Layaway

    • Estimate

Note: Once saved, the sale can be accessed later.


Resume a Suspended Sale

Quickly retrieve a previously suspended sale to continue the transaction, make changes, or complete payment. Follow the step below:

  1. From Dashboard, click the Sales tab.

  2. Click the three-dots and select Suspended Sales.

  3. Search for the sale and select Un-Suspend Sale.


    Add payment or make changes, then either complete or suspend again.
