# w044b-enter-pos-discriminator _Witnessed 2026-09-06T00:33:15.746Z — QRATE-UAT-1_ **The question:** when the server presses *Enter in POS* and the screen does not change, did the press fail — or did it succeed silently? I watch the network while I press, so the answer is not a guess. I press on both places the control appears. ### 01 · DINER **I expected:** I order one drink at my table **I saw:** ordered via "Place order $3.49 ›" | Drinks Starters Mains Desserts BEVERAGES 1 MORE

Enter in POS. Table left open. --- **Verdict:** PARTIAL_GREEN **Why it ended here:** Told apart 'the press failed' from 'the press succeeded silently'. — BUT 1 step(s) did not succeed, so this walk did not go end to end: 05 (the same is true in the table's own sheet). Verdict downgraded from WALKED by the journal, because the spec claimed more than its steps support.
