Search for orders (Full Service)
Learn how to search for current and previous orders on the Eats365 POS.
The "Order List" screen logs all parked and confirmed orders processed through various sources including the Eats365 POS, the PhotoMenu, Branded Online Store, and more. You can easily retrieve past and pending orders manually or use different filter options to view and manage the order, or settle payments.
In this article, you’ll learn about the different ways to search for an order placed on the POS.
Important: You can only search for orders on the POS if the order was made in the past 30 days. If you want to search for older orders, use the Merchant Portal.
Search for an order using a keyword

- Contains - Returns a general search based on the entered information in the search box.

Order ID - Returns search results based on the order ID.
Note:- The Order ID can be found at the top of the order list from the order-taking screen.
- The Order ID is generated only after the order has been confirmed.
- Receipt Number - Returns search results based on the receipt number.
- Table Number - Returns search results based on the table number.
