Restaurant Order Management

Introduction

Restaurant Order Management helps restaurants manage table orders, generate kitchen order tickets (KOT) for food and bar order tickets (BOT) for drinks, and create GST bills for each table session. Tickets and bills can be printed as PDFs.

Project Summary

Manage restaurant menus, table orders, kitchen and bar tickets, and GST billing directly in Drupal.

Features

• Manage menu items by category, with prices and separate classifications for kitchen food orders and bar drink orders.
• Place orders by table using menu item autocomplete. Multiple orders for the same table are grouped into a single session for billing.
• Generate separate kitchen order tickets (KOT) for food and bar order tickets (BOT) for drinks.
• Mark orders as served or cancel them. Cancelled orders are excluded from the bill.
• Save a bill without closing the table session, or finalize the bill and close the session to prepare the table for new orders.
• Calculate bills from all orders in a table session, including the subtotal, GST and grand total. Saved bills retain the GST rate applied when they were created.
• View past bills and download them as PDFs.
• Configure restaurant details, including name, address and GSTIN, along with the GST rate, currency symbol, menu categories and bill footer text.
• Provide separate permissions for order taking, billing, menu management and administration, with Waiter, Kitchen, Bar and Cashier roles created during installation.
