Workflow

When a waiter takes an order from the table section, it is automatically sent to the respective kitchen based on the product configuration. The kitchen staff see the items in their dashboard, cook them, and mark them as Ready. Once marked ready, the waiter is notified to serve the items. Finally, the system generates the bill which can be printed and settled in the Order section.
