Catch canceled delivery orders before the refund window closes

Canceled delivery orders can often be refunded, but each platform's deadline runs from a different event and the clock never stops. This worksheet reads every canceled order, works out the days left, and tells the store exactly which ones to file today.

Why it matters

Today's manual process, and the same job with the app

A shift manager at a multi-store restaurant group, checking canceled delivery orders every morning.

✕Today's manual process

1Open the platform export and find every order that was canceled since yesterday.
2Look up that platform's rules a different window and a different start date, on each of six platforms.
3Work out the days left manually, and price the claim off the right subtotal.
4Miss the window once and that claim's food cost is gone for good.
Every claim tracked from memory

✓With the app

1The export is read and every canceled order is picked out automatically.
2Each platform's own terms are applied the right window, unit, and start date, every time.
3The days left are counted and the claim is priced off the prepared items, not the full total.
4Every order is remembered so nothing is filed twice, and nothing is missed.
Every claim tracked the same way, daily

One real case, read by the app, step by step

ORD-0033-R2 sits on a ten-day window that started at order placement, so today's run finds it already filed and past deadline.
