# Charge Order

Once we have clicked on the **Charge** button through the **Applicable
Promotions**
screen or the **Change payment method** button through the **Check
Order**
screen, the following screen will appear:

In this screen we can see the **Total Amount** of the order and the
**Pending Amount**, depending on the amounts that we are adding in the
lower part in **Payment method**.

The system will allow us to choose between the different **Payment
Methods** that we have configured through the **Order Payment
Methods**
screen. We can add the total amount of the order in just one payment
method or in more than one payment methods.

If we choose the **Invitation** payment method we can invite the
customer to the whole order if we have the the required **Access Level
Definition**
to the system.

Anytime we choose a payment method, we must enter the amount that we
will be paid in that payment method and press Enter.

The amounts that we are introducing with the different payment methods,
will be added in the central part and if the addition of all the amounts
added exceed the total amount of the order, the **Change to give** will
appear just below.

Once we have introduced some payment method with its corresponding
amount, the order cannot longer be canceled. Therefore, if the order
eventually will not be placed, it should be canceled later.

If it is a **Dine In, Table, Counter or Terrace order**, the **number of
guests** and the **price to be paid per guest** will appear at the
bottom.

On the other hand, we can choose the tip that the customer is going to
pay among the suggested tips which appear at the bottom. We have to take
into consideration, that the tip payment method could be different from
the order payment method.

On the right side, we have several buttons that allow us to execute
different functions:

**Charge**: We will use this button to charge the order, once we have
entered enough amount to make the payment of the order with any payment
method.

**Customer receipt and Kitchen chit**: We can deactivate any of these
two options, if we do not want print the customer receipt or the kitchen
chit. In order to do it, we must click on the corresponding button and
after confirming it, we will see how the name of the button changes to
**No customer receipt** or **No kitchen chit**. If we deactivate any of
these two options, they will keep deactivated for the following orders
until we activate them again.

**Pending**: We can leave the order as pending and the whole order will
be sent to the kitchen staff and the order will be pending on the
**Orders**
screen.

**Charge separately**: It allows us to charge the order separately,
choosing the items on different tickets through the **Split
order**
screen.

**Cancel**: It allow us to exit of the screen without making any
changes.
