How does Poster's restaurant automation work?
Automation of restaurant operations simplifies both accounting in the restaurant business for owners and managers, as well as the work of all staff.
Hall
The waiter takes the order and enters the data into the cash register. Then he sends the runner to the kitchen or bar so that the guest's order can be prepared.
Kitchen
The order from the cash register goes to the kitchen, where it is immediately prepared. There are two ways to transmit the order: a printed "runner" or text on the screen, as, for example, is implemented in the Kitchen Kit from Poster.
Bar
As with the kitchen, drink orders are sent from the waiter's till to the bar (or the bartender takes the order at the counter). When a bottle from the warehouse is opened, the system records this so that the bartender cannot pour "his" alcohol.
Stock
All deliveries of products to the warehouse are entered into the accounting system, where they are written off as ingredients of dishes when preparing orders in the kitchen and at the bar. The write-off occurs according to the technological maps of dishes.
Cash register
When the order is ready and the guests ask for the bill, a guest check is printed, which the waiter gives to the guests. After the bill is paid, a fiscal receipt is printed. The transaction data is transferred to the tax office. In the cash register, you can open and close cash shifts, conduct collection and generate a Z-report.
Accounting
All data in the form of clear graphs and customizable reports can be viewed in the admin panel for owners. All accounting can be done in the automation system.
Management
The system can keep track of staff working hours: how many shifts and hours each employee worked, the number and amount of checks issued, etc. You can analyze popular menu items, peak occupancy times for the hall, and much more, which will help improve the efficiency of the establishment.
