This article describes a standard order flow. Labels may vary slightly by configuration.
Open or attach a ticket
- Start a new order or open the current table / tab your venue uses.
- Add the guest’s items from the menu.
Modifiers and notes
- When an item has required modifiers, complete every required step before moving on.
- Use kitchen notes for allergies or prep instructions; keep them short and explicit.
Send to kitchen
- When the order is ready for production, use Send, Fire, or Submit to kitchen (wording depends on setup).
- Confirm the ticket appears on KDS for a test order during training.
Payment
- Choose the payment method your guest requested.
- Print or email a receipt if your policy requires it.
Best practices
- Never share manager credentials on shared devices.
- If an item price looks wrong, stop and ask a manager before charging.
