# Settle An Order In Cash

> Take a cash payment, enter the tendered amount, and finish the sale.

Use cash settlement when the customer pays with physical cash and the cashier needs Plato to record tender, change, and the receipt step.

## Before Taking Cash

The order should already be sent or ready to pay.
