How to Split an Open Ticket with Loyverse POS

Topics

The Split Ticket feature allows a cashier to divide an existing open ticket into multiple new tickets. This is useful in cafes and restaurants when guests at the same table want to pay separately.

Before using this feature, make sure that the Open tickets option is activated in your Back Office.

1. Accessing the Split Ticket Option

When working with an open ticket in the Loyverse POS app, tap the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top right corner of the sale screen and select Split ticket.

A dialog box will appear asking you to set the ticket name. You can keep the automatically generated name or enter a custom one.

  • The original ticket on the left.

After saving, each split ticket becomes a separate open ticket.

From there, you can continue editing, adding items, or closing each ticket at payment.

6. Notes on Discounts, Modifiers, and Taxes

  • All modifiers, comments, discounts, and taxes applied to individual items will move with those items to the new ticket.
  • Percentage discounts applied to the whole original ticket will automatically apply to all new tickets.
  • Amount discounts applied to the original ticket can be manually moved to any ticket, just like items.

7. Printing Bills (Optional)

If you have a printer connected, you can print:

  • A bill for each split ticket individually, or
  • Bills for all tickets at once, directly from the Split Ticket screen.

You have successfully split an open ticket into multiple separate tickets, allowing customers to pay individually while keeping all order details and modifiers intact.
