Using a prep station

Using printed prep tickets

Prep tickets will automatically print whenever products which are assigned to the Prep Station are submitted in a Sale. Tickets will also print when products are added, removed or edited in a Sale and when customer and sale details change. See the example below.

Using digital prep tickets

Prep tickets are created whenever products which are assigned to the Prep Station are submitted in a Sale. Tickets are updated when products are added, removed or edited in a Sale and when customer and sale details change.

You can select tickets you are working on by tapping the ticket header. This will highlight the tickets with a yellow border so they stand out while selected.

When you have prepared a product, you can tick it off by tapping the circle next to the product name. When all products in a ticket are prepared you can close the prep ticket by tapping Close in the header.

If there are changes to a product that has not been prepared, the time of the change is highlighted for the next minute. If a product changes and it has been prepared, a new ticket line with a negative preparation quantity will be shown.

If you want to review or reopen closed tickets, tap the three dots at the top of the Prep Station and tap View open tickets. You can reopen tickets here and they will reappear in the Prep Station’s open section.

Notifications

Enable sounds to hear a notification from the prep station when you receive new orders. You can enable sounds by going to Settings > Preferences > Sound and switch on the toggle.

Preparation priority

You can configure the order in which products will be shown in a prep ticket. That way products that take longer to prepare will appear at the top of a prep ticket, while the faster products appear at the end. For example, apply a preparation priority of ‘high’ to a product which takes 20 minutes to prepare and a low priority to a product that takes 5 minutes to prepare.

To set preparation priority:

Go to Products (Back office or App) and select the product you want to change
Go to the Preparation section and select the Preparation priority (High, Medium or Low)
- Higher priority products will appear higher in the ticket
