Efficient To Go Order Management | OrderCounter

To Go

This is a quick service order type and will not allow you to suspend a sale. It is used mostly in quick service restaurants where the order will generally be to go.


There is no Send order button as the order will be sent automatically when the “Checkout” button is pressed. If you do not complete the payment process then a void ticket will be sent to the kitchen so they don’t make the order.


In the Receipt Template you should make sure to have a line for Order method so you can see that the order is “To Go”.


You can have the system prompt for a name which will print on the Ticket so you can call out the name when the order is ready .
