Docs / Your staff

Kitchen display

Put the kitchen's tickets on a tablet, with timers, notes and one-tap Ready.

Open the Kitchen tab on a tablet in the kitchen. Any recent Android tablet or iPad works; mount it where the cooks can reach it.

Choose the station

The tablet shows one station, for example Kitchen, Bar or Tandoor. Choose it with the buttons under the title; the choice is remembered for that user. Stations are set up under Restaurant → Stations in WordPress.

Tickets

Tickets are sorted by priority, then oldest first. Each shows:

• the order number and the type or table;
• how long it has waited;
• the dishes with their choices;
• notes in red.

Working a ticket

• Start (optional) shows the front of house that the kitchen has begun.
• Ready marks the dishes as cooked. When every dish of an order is ready, the order is ready.
• Bump clears a ticket when your kitchen uses a separate step after Ready.
• Recall brings back a ticket bumped by mistake.
• Reprint prints the ticket again.

Filters and summary

Show only dine-in, takeaway, pickup or delivery tickets, or the recently bumped ones. The summary shows new, preparing and ready counts, tickets done today and the average time.

Set up the tablet

• Full screen hides the browser bars.
• The screen stays awake while the Kitchen tab is open.
• A chime plays once for each new ticket. Turn sounds off in More → Settings.
• If the Wi-Fi drops, Start, Ready and Bump are saved on the tablet and sent when it is back online.
