Role and Permission
A significant feature of restaurant Point of Sale (POS) systems is the role-based access control (RBAC). The main importance of role-based access control is to allow distinct levels of access control to staff members according to their roles and duties. For instance, the manager has access to reports, employee scheduling, granting discounts, and modifying menus. Meanwhile, the cashier is limited to handling payments, processing orders, and voiding transactions. Similarly, waiters can solely oversee their shift timings. This feature offers the benefits of enhanced security and systematic operations in the restaurant.
Bill Splits
The Foodship Point of Sale (POS) system offers an advantageous feature of bill-splitting for restaurants. This feature holds great importance as it allows easy and hassle-free bill settlement process for the restaurant but also ensures a smooth checkout experience for customers. This enhancement benefits both the efficiency of the restaurant system and customer satisfaction.
The bill-splitting feature can be achieved in three different ways:
- On basis of specific items: The restaurant POS system provides the flexibility to select specific food items from the bill and charge diners only for the items they've ordered. This feature proves important for larger groups, enabling each individual to pay solely for what they've consumed.
- Equally: An important feature is the restaurant's ability to split the bill evenly among all diners. This simple feature offers the benefit of easy and hassle-free calculations.
- On basis of payment mode: This feature allows for bill division according to the chosen payment method, offering the advantage of splitting a portion for card payment and the rest in cash.
Run POS on multiple screens
During peak hours, restaurants can expedite the order-taking process by deploying multiple point-of-sale (POS) systems on different devices. This helps restaurant staff simultaneously take and process various orders on separate devices, all at the same time. This aids restaurants in staying organized and achieving greater efficiency during busy hours. The significance of the multiple-screen feature is evident for restaurants that offer delivery, takeout, and dine-in services. Different orders can be received and processed on separate screens, with the assurance that orders are handled accurately and promptly.
