  • About reopening bills

    You can reopen a closed bill if you need to make changes, such as adding an item or correcting a bill closed by mistake.

    When you reopen a bill, the original payment method is removed and the original payment amount is refunded. You’ll need to collect payment again after making your changes.

    Reopening a bill while keeping the original payment method is not available in the UK or Ireland.

    Before you begin

    • You can reopen bills on iOS devices. Reopening bills is not currently available on Android devices.

    • You can only reopen a bill before the payment has been settled. Make sure you haven’t run your close-of-day report or settled the transaction you want to reopen.
