# Change quantities or clear the cart

The cart supports quantity updates, line removal, and a confirmed clear-cart action. Review every cart line, use quantity controls or remove a line as needed, and to remove everything, choose Clear cart. Review the final cart, customer, service mode, price, tax, notes, and stock state before checkout.

## Before you start

- An authenticated POS session for the intended branch.
- The current branch menu and register configuration have finished loading.

## Update or remove one line

1. Use the line quantity controls to increase, decrease, or remove the intended item.
2. Review the resulting quantity, modifiers, unit, price, and stock state.

## Clear the full cart

1. Select Clear cart.
2. Read the destructive confirmation and confirm only when every line should be removed.
3. Verify the cart is empty before starting another order.

## Expected result

Each intended quantity or removal is reflected once, and Clear cart leaves no lines only after confirmation. Keep the cart open and do not add the item again while its line state is uncertain.

## Permissions

- Register use requires POS access for the active branch; catalog, configuration, and stock corrections remain restricted to an authorized manager.

## Troubleshooting

### POS does not let staff review every cart line; they cannot continue to use quantity controls or remove a line as needed.

A safe retry starts by confirming: An authenticated POS session for the intended branch. The current branch menu and register configuration have finished loading. Keep the same branch and record, reopen /billing, and try the blocked action once. If it still fails, stop and send Support the safe cart reference, product or SKU, branch, line state, and time. Capture the displayed state produced when staff review every cart line.

### The cart or register does not reflect the requested item change after the final checkpoint: Confirm the destructive prompt.

Inspect the affected cart line, quantity, unit, modifiers, price, stock, customer, and service mode. Retry once only when the cart proves the change was not already applied and menu and stock data are current. When no single result can be proved, pause and provide Support the safe cart reference, product or SKU, branch, line state, and time. Check the saved state after staff confirm the destructive prompt.
