🏷️ Label printing

The software allows you to print labels for your items, customers and tables.

Label Contents

Labels may contain:

  • The name of the item, customer or table
  • The barcode or QR code
  • The price of the item, if available
  • The quantity, if available
  • A description
  • The best before date (BBD), if available

Using labels

  • Scanning an item's barcode adds the item to the order
  • Scanning a customer's barcode assigns the customer to the current order
  • Scanning a table's barcode in the sales interface allows you to associate the table with the order
  • Scanning a table's QR code with a smartphone opens the order page dedicated to that table

Labeling media

  • Customer labels can be stuck on plastic cards
  • Product labels can be stuck directly onto the products or printed on A4 sheets for easy scanning.

Customizing printing

From the label printing page, you can:

  • Use a search filter to print only certain labels
  • Select a category of items or customers
  • Set print margins, number of columns, and spacing

This allows you to adjust the printing to your usual label format.

💡 Remember to test your layout on a regular sheet of paper before printing on adhesive labels.
