How an order flows through RestoQR

The life of an order from QR scan (or till tap) to a settled bill and a cleared table.

The orders board in the admin console
Every QR and counter order lands on one board.

A QR (dine-in) order

  1. Guest scans the table QR code — the menu opens in their browser.
  2. Guest orders — items, variants, add-ons and notes go into a cart; the order is placed and the table shows as Ordered.
  3. Cashier approves — the order pops up full-screen in the till's approval queue. Accept sends it to the kitchen and prints the KOT; Reject asks for a reason, which is audited and shown to the guest.
  4. Kitchen cooks — tickets appear on the KDS; each item goes Start → Ready and ages visibly.
  5. Floor serves — the order is marked Served; the guest can order another round from the same QR — every round joins one table bill.
  6. Bill settles — the table appears in the till's collect queue (or Billing → To collect). The cashier takes payment by cash, UPI, card or wallet.
  7. Table clears — the cashier marks the table free from the same screen, ready for the next party.

A counter (walk-in) sale

  1. The cashier taps items on the till grid — the cart builds on the right.
  2. Takeaway: press Complete sale — the payment sheet opens, the cashier takes the money, change is shown large.
  3. Dine-in: pick the table and press Send to kitchen — the KOT prints and the table's bill stays open until settlement.

Note

Guests can also pay online from their phone while at the table — see Online payments. If they don't, the order simply shows Pay at counter and settles like any other bill.
