"CLOSE ORDER" Button Only for Admin Users

I have installed ARPOS in a very busy restuarant that serves a full array of menu items & buffets. Since its install, i have been documenting certain business rules that it handles. One in particular is the "Close Order" button. Since a waitress is serving multiple orders at once time, wairtresses tend to "accidentally" touch the "Close Order" button which is directly next to the "Print Bill" button that the waitresses chooses to hand the bill to the customer. Once the order is closed the cashier i up front is unable to open the order back up and has to process the bill by hand or with a calculator which decreases efficiency for any high ouput restaurant.

My question is can the "Close Order" button be taken out and or hidden on the screen and only an "admin" level user able to see the "Close Order" button? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, it's possible in the latest version.

Download the updated version from the following location:

Install it over existing version. It will update needed files.

Then go to Configuration - Preferences - Order
and check "Only admins can Close Order"
