Wow I didn’t even think about how this affects inventory with a backlog of POS draft orders not being easily deleted! At this point we’ve had to remove the draft order tile at checkout altogether. I’m sure we would all love if every customer came to checkout 100% ready and finished shopping, but nearly half of ours end up wanting to add or swap products as we ring them up, impulse buys and discovering a detail about a product (like the volume of a glass or that a set of X product is cheaper than buying 4 of Y), and this happens constantly at the boutique store we operate. Having to clear an entire order while they continue so we can ring out another waiting customer looks terrible on us, not to mention loss in sales when the who process is slowed down. I’ve had to pause an order to ring someone else through, explain to the first customer that I can’t ring them out until they have everything they need ready, and that can lead to them leaving products behind in the interest of just getting it done faster.
