What should a restaurant do with refunds and upcharges shown in the Grubhub order-adjustments section?

How to review Grubhub order adjustments

Refunds and error chargesField guide 33 of 52

Grubhub says its order-adjustments section can contain customer refunds and upcharges applied after the order. Split positive and negative adjustments, then tie each material row to the order, reason, and statement period where it settled. Compare with restaurant-held ticket or handoff evidence when available.

A pattern of adjustments may point to an operating issue even when individual amounts are correct. Conversely, one well-documented order may deserve support review. Track later credits or reversals back to the originating order so the resolution closes the original exception.
