The complete operation list is available in the Selectors guide in the Manager module. The same operations might sometimes be titled differently. In keyboard stations, the same button can be used for two different operations - main and alternative, which are performed by pressing in combination with “Alt” key.
The access to the operations might differ depending on:
The employee rights;
The parameter settings (e.g. If the Place settings are disabled, the Place operation is not displayed);
The properties (e.g. Weight is available for the dishes by weight and unavailable for standard dishes)
The possibility to perform the operation at this stage of editing the order (e.g. Cancel the bill operation is available only for the orders that have the Bills already printed out.
The operation menu is displayed in the vertical panel of the order edit form.
