Order Management
Order Management allows you to track and manage the full lifecycle of every order — from creation to completion or cancellation. It connects the POS, kitchen, payments, delivery, and inventory in one system so you always know the status of each order.Where to find it: In the left sidebar, click Orders.
Order Types
Every order is created as one of three types:- Dine-in — Assigned to a table number on the selected branch's floor plan.
- Takeaway — Customer collects the order in person; no table is assigned.
-
Delivery — Order is dispatched to a customer address. Delivery orders capture:
- Customer address — Entered manually or pulled from the customer's saved address if they're an existing member
- Delivery fee — Added to the order total, configurable per branch or per zone
Order Lifecycle
Orders move through the following stages:Created → Pending → Confirmed → Preparing → Completed
↓
Cancelled
Status Definitions
| Status | What It Means | Inventory | Kitchen |
|---|---|---|---|
| Created | Order entered but not confirmed | No change | Not sent |
| Pending | Waiting for payment or confirmation | Reserved | Not sent |
| Confirmed | Payment received or approved | Deducted | Sent to kitchen |
| Preparing | Kitchen is working on it | Already deducted | Active on display |

Standard Order Flow

Pay Later Flow
Created → Pending → Confirmed → Preparing → Completed
Orders can be cancelled at any stage, but permissions may vary.
Payment Methods
When an order is confirmed, payment is collected using one of the supported methods:- Cash — Recorded immediately as paid, with change due calculated automatically.
- Card — Processed through the connected card terminal/payment integration.
- BNPL (Buy Now, Pay Later) — The order is marked as paid at checkout through the BNPL provider, while the customer settles the amount later according to the provider's terms. The order proceeds to the kitchen normally, since payment is guaranteed by the BNPL provider at the point of sale.
Customer & Membership Lookup
Every order can be linked to a customer, either an existing one or a new one created on the spot:- Scan to identify — If the customer is a Hazel Pay loyalty member, scanning their QR code at the Bizaldo tablet automatically pulls their profile (name, phone number, and saved address) into the order.
- Manual lookup by phone number — Staff can type the customer's phone number directly into the order. If a matching customer already exists, their details auto-fill into the order. If no match is found, a new customer profile is created automatically using that number, so every order is tied to a customer record without extra steps.
- Guest orders — Orders can also be completed without attaching a customer profile, for walk-ins who don't want to be identified.
