The widget can be used on both the restaurant and take-away sections.

Displays a wall of bills containing all the ordered dishes, grouped by table. This widget should be published within the dashboard, so that an administrator can see a live overview of the dishes under preparation.

The widget shows only the dishes of reservations that are at least 2 hours ahead and no more than 3 hours behind. In example, if the current time is 20:00, the widget will show the reservations with a check-in between 18:00 and 23:00.

In case a dish is marked as "under preparation", it will stay within the widget until it is completed. Once a dish is marked as "completed", it will be reported within the Outgoing Courses sidebar. This sidebar gives an overview of the dishes that should be picked up by the waiters and delivered to the tables. Once a dish is taken or delivered, it will disappear from the widget.

The customers are able to delete a dish from the cart as long as it is not marked as "under preparation".

NOTE: the status of the dishes can be changed by selecting a specific code, which must own the correct rule to keep the described behavior.

Here's a list of supported settings.

Offers the possibility of increasing the maximum number of orders that can be received on each interval. By clicking the ellipsis icon on the right side, a popup will show up to ask you whether you wish to increase or decrease the maximum number of accepted orders for that time slot. There's also a button to immediately stop receiving orders for a specific interval.

Notice that this widget reports only the orders that have been booked for the same service to which the maximum number of orders restriction applies. In example, in case the restriction is applied to delivery orders only, this widget will never consider the pickup orders. While it will continue to display as usual the number of preparation meals for both the services.

The times can assume 3 different colors:

• green - the interval is still available;
• orange - the availability of the interval reached at least the 80% of the occupancy;
• red - it is no more possible to book an order for this interval.

By clicking a green cell the system will show a modal containing all the details of the reservation. Next to the customer name can be found a link to change the status code of a reservation.

Any red cells indicate that it is not possible to store a reservation for the selected date and time. The reasons might be: date in the past, table closure, room closed or restaurant closed.
