Coordinating dietary restrictions, menu validation, and final headcount across clients, kitchen staff, and attendees is manual, error-prone, and time-consuming.
Automation generates customized dietary forms, collects responses with reminders, validates restrictions against the menu in real time, and syncs final numbers directly to the kitchen prep schedule.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
A new catering event is created with menu and date. The automation is triggered immediately.
An automation generates a customized Google Form with the event's menu options and dietary restriction categories. Form is pre-populated with event details.
The form link is sent to the client contact with a personalized message and deadline. Automated reminders are scheduled for 3 days and 1 day before deadline.
As responses arrive, the automation automatically validates each dietary restriction against the menu and flags conflicts. Incomplete responses trigger automated follow-up emails.
Once the deadline passes, the automation automatically tallies final headcount, counts dietary restrictions by type, and generates a summary document.
The final summary is automatically posted for kitchen staff and emailed to the client. Kitchen prep schedule is auto-updated with ingredient quantities.
Final headcount, dietary summary, and menu confirmation are logged to the event record for audit and future reference.
