Scheduled Orders
Sail has the ability to take an order and have it send to the kitchen later that day or on a future day.
Scheduled Order Settings
- In Backoffice --> CRM --> Settings --> Scheduled orders
- Below there are 4 different settings you can configure for your scheduled order.
- #1 - Set how many days in advance you'd like people to be able to schedule orders out
- #2 - Check this box if you'd like it to print to the kitchen printers as soon as you take the order
- #3 - Check this box if you'd like it to print at a specific time on the day its scheduled for
- Many like this setting so that when the kitchen teams arrive in the morning, they can see all the orders that are scheduled for that day.
- #4 - Check this box if you'd like it to print to the kitchen when the order is scheduled for, minus the prep time you have set up.
- Example using settings below: you have an order scheduled for 2pm, so it will be sent to the kitchen at 1:30pm to give the kitchen time to make it.
- Things to Note:
- You may have multiple settings set at one time
- Example: "Print at specific time" and "Print at lead time" - This will have the ticket printed out in the morning at the time you set, and will also print at the scheduled time minus prep time.
- Settings #2 and #3 are only available if you have kitchen printers and are not available for Kitchen Video at this time.
- The "Maximum days out" and "Default prep lead time" are for in store orders only. There are different settings for Online Order that you'll see below
- You may have multiple settings set at one time
Setting it up on an Order Type
- You can decide which orders are schedulable and which orders are not.
- in Backoffice --> POS --> System Setup --> Order Types
- Click the pencil next to the order type
- At the bottom there is a section called Scheduled orders
- Click the "Scheduling Allowed" checkbox if you'd like to be able schedule order with this order type
- "Scheduling is Default" will require this order type to always be scheduled
- "Lead Time Adjust" is used if you'd like to add time to the Default Prep Lead Time you set above
- Example: the Default Prep Lead time is set at 30 minutes, but for Delivery orders you'd like to give an extra 20 minutes so they have time to drive it to a customer. Then you would put 20 in the "Lead Time Adjust" box
Setting it up for Online Ordering
- In Backoffice --> POS --> Online Ordering --> Site Configuration --> Click the pencil --> Configuration tab
- "Future Order Days" is where you can set how many days in advance you'd like people to be able to schedule orders out
- Online Order will respect the checkboxes in settings for "Print when ordered," "Print at specific time," and/or "Print at Lead time"
- The Online Ordering Prep Lead time will
