A test sale should not stay in your numbers. After your shop's first sale the till offers to cancel it in two taps.

## Steps

1. Ring and charge the sale as usual.
2. Under the finished sale press "Was this a test? Remove it".
3. Read the note: the sale is cancelled, the goods go back to stock and it no longer counts as a sale.
4. Press "Remove the sale". Press "No, it was real" to keep it.
5. If you made products only to try the till, a line asks "Did you make these products only to try it?". Press "Hide them from the till".

## If it doesn't work

- "The sale was not removed. Try again.": check the internet and press "Remove the sale" again.
- You missed the offer: open the sale from "Invoices" and cancel it there.
- Hidden products come back from "Inventory", then "Deactivated".

## What the system does not do

It only offers this for the first sale. Later sales are cancelled from their invoice page.

## Common questions

**I don't see "Was this a test? Remove it".**

It shows under the shop's first sale, once the sale has been sent to the server. If you are offline, wait until the status badge shows you are back online.

**Will the removed sale count in my reports?**

No. It is cancelled like any cancelled invoice: the goods go back to stock and it no longer counts as a sale.
