Refunds and voids

Updated: 2026-05-25

Refunds and voids

Also known as: devoluciones, anulaciones, anular, reembolso, void a line, refund a ticket, rectificación, manager PIN void.

Two distinct cases that people often mix up:

  • Voiding a line: the ticket hasn't been paid yet. You remove a product that was added by mistake or that the customer changed their mind about.
  • Refund: the ticket has already been paid. You have to issue a formal refund, which prints with a reason and is recorded in the end-of-day cashup and the fiscal log.

Both leave a trail. Don't delete lines already sent to the kitchen without a manager PIN — brasio won't let you.

Voiding a line before payment

  1. In the table detail, find the line you want to remove.
  2. Swipe the line to the left. A Void button appears.
  3. Tap Void.

brasio checks the state:

  • If the product hasn't been sent to the kitchen yet, it's removed straight away.
  • If it was already sent to the kitchen, brasio asks for the manager PIN and, on confirmation, prints a ticket in the kitchen with a VOIDED notice so they know not to prepare it (or to stop if they'd already started). brasio also asks for a brief reason (customer changed mind, server error, out of stock).

The void is recorded against the server's shift and appears on the daily report.

Refunding a paid ticket

If the customer has already paid and you need to give money back (a complaint, an error, a faulty product):

  1. Admin → Tickets — the closed-tickets browser. See Browse and reprint closed tickets for how to find a specific ticket by date or customer.
  2. Find the ticket by date and the search box (number or customer).
  3. Tap the ticket → Refund.
  4. Pick which lines to refund (the whole ticket or just some lines).
  5. Enter the reason for the refund.
  6. Pick the refund method (Cash, Card, etc.).
  7. Confirm.

brasio:

  • Prints a refund ticket with the reason, the refunded lines and a negative amount.
  • If the refund is to card, brasio fires the operation on the SumUp reader to push the charge back to the customer.
  • Generates the corresponding Veri*factu record (rectifying invoice). See Veri*factu in brasio: overview.

Suggested policy

  • Free voids while the ticket is open: the server does them on their own.
  • Voids of lines already sent to the kitchen: manager PIN.
  • Refunds on a paid ticket: always manager PIN.

Role-based permissions (who can void or refund without a manager PIN) are configured by the brasio team. Get in touch if you need to adjust the policy for your venue.

Not working?

  • "You don't have permission to void": ask for a manager PIN or change the employee's role.
  • The card refund errors out: the reader may be out of Bluetooth range. Bring it closer to the terminal and try again. See Connect your SumUp card reader.
  • The ticket doesn't show up in Tickets: the default date is today — use Día anterior or pick a date if the ticket is older.
