# **FAQs **

**How do I open the Item Commands Menu?**  
Select one or more menu items on the **Order Ticket**. The **Item Commands Menu** will display the available actions for the selected item(s).

**Why can't I remove an item?**  
The **Remove** command is available only for items that have not yet been sent. If the item has already been sent, use **Void** instead (if your permissions allow it).

**What's the difference between Hold and Release?**  
**Hold** keeps an item on the order without sending it to the kitchen. **Release** sends any held items when they are ready.

**Can I modify an item after it has been entered?**  
Yes. Select the item and choose **Modify** to reopen the modifier screen and make changes, if the item can still be modified.

**Why don't I see all of the Item Command buttons?**  
The available commands depend on the selected item, its current status (for example, held or sent), and your user permissions.
