Pre-orders arrive through several separate channels, and someone has to check each one, retype every detail into a single list, and confirm payment before service starts. Doing this by hand every day invites missed orders, late confirmations, and mismatched totals at reconciliation time.
An automated version pulls orders from every channel into one prep list, verifies payment, and sends pickup confirmations without manual entry. The kitchen gets an up to date queue and bookkeeping records update automatically at the end of service.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
Every online pre-order submitted starts the workflow automatically.
The automation extracts item, quantity, pickup time, and payment status from the order.
The standardized order is appended to a live prep list with running totals.
The system checks whether the order was paid or left as an unpaid reservation.
A confirmation email with pickup time and order summary is sent automatically.
The updated prep queue and any rush changes are posted to the kitchen channel.
Paid pre-orders are logged for same-day bookkeeping.
