Sometimes customers may want to schedule their orders for a future date. The DPos Application allows you to easily modify the order date to meet their needs. Follow these steps to save an order for a future date.
Future Ordering
Future ordering allows customers to place orders up to 30 days in advance, which is useful for planning events and catering during holiday periods.
✅ Select Date:
Use the Future Order button in DPos to choose the desired order date.
✅ Take the Order:
Enter the full order details as you would for a regular sale.
✅ Payment Options:
Customers can choose to prepay or pay upon completion of the order.
✅ Reporting:
The order value will appear in DPos reports based on the day the payment is made, not the order date.
Using future ordering helps customers plan ahead, streamlines event and catering orders, and provides flexible payment options.
