Pickup windows
Capacity limits per window so you do not overpromise Saturday pickup slots.
Counter POS
Walk-up sales on tablet or desktop that feed the same order stream as preorders.
Packing & labels
Printable flows for wholesale crates and retail bags when your workspace enables them.
Kitchen display
Route warmed items and finishing tickets to a small BOH screen during service peaks.
