Successful Orders in Point of Sale CMS

View key sales transaction data such as order date, store ID, gross sales, and external order references in Point of Sale CMS. Monitor and analyze your sales operations.

Point of Sale's Successful Orders Report shows all orders that have been processed. It gives you useful information about different parts of the sales transactions. The report uses a table to show important information about each order. This lets users watch and analyze how their sales operations are doing.

To see a report of successful orders:

  1. In CMS, go to ORDERS > Successful Orders.
  2. Configure the search filter and select SEARCH.
  3. (Optional) To download the report, select DOWNLOAD in the upper right-hand of the screen.

While processed orders can show up instantly in the Electronic Journal report, they can be delayed in the Successful Order report. Allow up to one day before checking the latter.

You ‌can also filter through the search with order ID(s), order source, order type, and date range. Doing so will help you extract important information from relevant orders. For the use cases of order source, order type, and general information on how to read the report, refer to the table next:

Field Name Description
Order Date Date of the order
Store ID ID of the store
Associate ID ID of the associate who completed the order
Order #

ID of the order

Note: Return or exchange transactions will have different order IDs than the original sale transaction.

External Order

Select View References to show all external/NetSuite artifacts that are created for this order. This CTA is only available if the order is posted to NetSuite and an External Order ID is available.

If an External Order ID isn't available, a Repost CTA will be displayed instead. If clicked, it triggers the webhook, which in turn posts the order to NetSuite. When triggered, External/NetSuite artifact references will be shown in the successful order report that the report is rerun.

TLog Displays Incorrect Tender Information in Successful Orders

In cases of No Receipt exchanges, a proxy order (fake order) is created with a fake tender, and then the proxy order is exchanged. Hence, the fake tender is carried forward to an exchanged order. Depending on the order of Tender Types in your CMS’s Return Policy Configuration, the first tender under the No Receipt Return configuration is used as a fake tender during an exchange. In the example next, the Gift Card is first in the order; hence, you will see the fake Gift Card being shown in the exchange.No Receipt Exchanges showing a fake gift card
