# Cancel layaway orders

This topic describes how cashiers, salespeople, and floor managers can cancel layaway orders and refund deposits (partial or entire), if applicable.

If you look up the customer, when you recall the layaway order, POS only displays layaway orders belonging to the selected customer. If you do not look up the customer, when you recall the layaway order, POS displays all open layaway orders and you will have to search for the customer's layaway order.

1. (Optional) Look up the customer. Refer to [**Look up customers**](/readme-1/work-with-customers/customers-looking-up.md) for more information.
2. Tap **Orders** | **Recalls** | **Recall a Layaway**.
3. To select the customer's layaway order, do one of the following:

* Tap the layaway order once and tap **Add**.
* Tap the layaway order twice.

4. Tap **Orders** | **Cancel Order**.
5. (Optional) On the **Deposit to Keep** screen:
   1. Enter the amount of the customer's deposit that the store is keeping (not refunding to the customer). If the store is returning the full deposit to the customer, enter zero (0).
   2. Tap **OK**.
6. Enter the refund amount next to the appropriate tender type.
7. Tap **OK**.
8. (Optional) Print or email the customer's receipt.
9. Follow your store's policies for restocking layaway items.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/readme-1/work-with-layaways/cancel-layaway-orders.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
