With Hike’s iPad app, retailers can not only create action sale orders but also process incomplete sales once they have been finalized. Such sales orders that need to be fulfilled at a time, later than when they were first created, include:

• Back-Orders
  
• Lay-By Sales
  
• ‘On-Account’ Sales

In Hike’s iPad app, these features will be completed in the Sales History screen, where retailers will also be able to refund any completed purchases, as well as Delete or Void any Completed or Parked Orders.

In this section, we’ll cover just how to complete the sales that you have previously started and be sure to check our Entering New Sales on Hike’s iPad POS page to get a full breakdown on how you would add these sales, and others, into Hike POS.
