The till keeps a running snapshot of the open cart. If the browser crashes, the power blinks, or someone hits refresh mid-sale, Recovery brings it back.

Recover the cart

  1. Reopen the POS and sign back into the shift.
  2. Press F5 (Recovery).
  3. The interrupted cart reloads — items, quantities, discounts and customer intact.
  4. Finish it like a normal sale, or clear it if the customer left.

Recovery vs Hold

  • F5 Recovery → the till was interrupted (crash, reload, power). Automatic — you didn't choose to park it.
  • F2 Hold / F3 Recall → you chose to park a sale to serve someone else first.

Note: If a payment went through but the page died before the receipt printed, check F9 — Invoice history first: the sale may already be posted, and you can simply reprint from there instead of re-ringing it.
