### 2. Void or Waste on Refund Orders

* While the POS operator performs a refund we now have provision to choose either to **Void** or **Waste** the refund order.

* **Void Order :**By selecting the **Void **option, the order is not yet prepared so when taking a refund the inventory for that item will return back (The result is no inventory will be reduced).

* **Waste Order :**By selecting the **Waste **option, the order is already prepared and the ingredients are consumed. A waste management entry is created automatically and it will be completed with the respective stock adjusted to waste.

|| **Navigation**: POS Frontend → Sales → Select the sale → Refund
