How do you transfer items between tables?

• A. Ask another server to handle it
• B. Click table #, split, choose item, look up check # of other table, transfer
• C. Physically move the tray and place on another table
• D. Close the check and reopen at the other table

Answer: (B)

Transferring items between tables is done by moving the item within the POS to the other table’s check, so the order stays accurate and traceable. Start on the table that has the item, select the specific item you’re moving, and use the transfer function to send it to the destination table’s open check. You’ll usually look up or select that other table’s check number and confirm the transfer. This keeps both tables correctly billed and avoids confusion.

This approach fits because it uses the system’s built-in transfer capability, creating a clear, auditable trail of where the item belongs. It also ensures the item appears on the correct check without duplicating charges or losing track of the item.

Other methods don’t fit: asking another server to handle it isn’t recorded in the system; physically moving a tray doesn’t update the order in the POS; and closing a check and reopening at the other table can create billing errors and lost item traceability. The proper transfer keeps everything organized and accurate.
