Is there an easy way to see recent orders?

There are so many customers that it's hard to always remember what the customer ordered, especially when the order is like "12oz caramel latte with ice and hemp", and 70% of the words are additions to the initial order. Right now baristas are writing down the oreders, but I was curious: is there an easy way to pull up a screen on Square App with all recent orders, so baristas can see what was ordered?

 

I know that I can use "Transactions", but it's hard to take an order, accept payment, print a check, go to transactions, then again accept order from the next customer. Also, transactons don't show the exact additions we made. I'd prefer something like a "swipe up from "Items" screen to see recent orders".

 

P. S. Is there a way to display orders on a second screen, like baristas iPhone or iPad?

Welcome to he seller community, @kedronpro, and thanks for your post.

 

To be sure I'm on the same page, which hardware are you currently set up with? A few different options come to mind that may help you streamline this process for your employees:

  • Point of Sale: Print Order Tickets — send detailed order tickets to a printer.
  • Partner App: Fresh KDS — a display system that can be used with or in place of order ticket printers.
  • Partner App: SimpleOrder — focused on streamlining operations: orders, inventory, and reporting.

Do any of these options help solve for your business needs? Please don't hesitate to reply with any other questions or concerns.
