Catering kitchen production software, station by station.

Save an order and every product on it becomes a task, sent to the station that makes it. Chefs work from a big-card kiosk screen, print labels as they go, and the office sees progress live.

A task for every item

Tasks are grouped by function date, then by item, with a total to make across all orders and a row for each order underneath.

  • Packages split into one task per item
  • A menu-confirmed tick so chefs know if quantities may change
  • Status: not started, in progress or done

Kiosk mode at each station

A full-screen view for a tablet at the station. Choose the terminal once and the screen remembers it.

  • Large cards with the quantity, item, order and hot or cold
  • Start, Print and Stop on each card
  • A prompt when a task is stopped before its label is printed

Picking lists and custom items

The warehouse prints packing sheets for a day or week, green when the job is confirmed. Hand-typed items show up until someone writes their kitchen task.

  • Picking list PDF for one order or a whole day
  • Labels CSV for the label printer
  • Custom products report so nothing is cooked from guesswork

Questions

Kitchen production: common questions

Can I add a task the order doesn't cover?

Yes. Add a task by hand with a name, note, terminal and quantity.

What stops fees creating kitchen tasks?

Products can be marked No production task, so fees and notes never reach the kitchen.
