The Blocked Orders log shows orders that customers attempted to place but were rejected by the system. These are orders that never reached your kitchen - they were blocked at checkout for a specific reason.

Viewing Blocked Orders

Go to Reports > Logs in the dashboard to see the blocked orders log. Each entry shows:
  • Date - When the order attempt occurred
  • Block reason - Why the order was rejected
  • Order type - Pickup, Delivery, or Dine-in
  • Total - The order value
  • Items - What was in the cart
  • Customer - Who attempted the order

Using the Blocked Orders Log

The log helps you identify:
  1. Menu sync issues - Frequent sold_out blocks may indicate your menu availability isn’t updating correctly
  2. Slot capacity - slot_*_exceeded blocks show when you’re hitting operational limits
  3. Pricing mismatches - bad_total blocks can indicate caching or sync issues
