In the Sound tab, select the sound effect to be played when a new order has been entered and added into the kitchen display or select No sound to disable sound effects.

Clicking on the Items tab will open a window split into two parts: a side pane on the left with categories and the corresponding items in the selected category to the right.

Items that are checked will appear on orders on the kitchen display. Click an item to check or uncheck the item.

To check or uncheck all items in a category, click to highlight the category in the left side pane, and then click the highlighted category.

At the bottom left area, check or uncheck order types to select the types of orders that are shown on the kitchen display.

On the main screen, all open orders are shown consecutively starting from the first open order.

Orders that are closed will automatically be hidden.

At the top left of each order, the order number is shown in a black box.

Click on an item to add a checkmark (or click it again to remove the checkmark) to denote an item that has been completed. Checking all items on an order will automatically hide the order.

Click on the circle with a red ‘x’ to check all items in the order and hide the order.

Each order also shows the time elapsed since the order has been turned in above the order type and server name. The time will be highlighted in different colors as the time increases.

The current screen shows all open or current orders. To view all orders (including hidden/completed ones), click on the left arrow to scroll through all orders starting from the last one. The right arrow will become available to scroll back.

Clicking on the Summary Pane button will open a pane on the right with a list of the total number of items for all the displayed orders.

The number of each item is split into two numbers: the number of the item from Dinein orders and the number of the item from Walkin/Pickup orders. If Total is checked, it will display the sum of those numbers.

To the right of the item name, the order number(s) for orders displayed with the item are shown.

If Hide is checked (near the top right), all items that have not been completed will be hidden.

If Combine is checked, the same items in the summary pane will be grouped together even if they have different modifiers and/or special requests.

Modifiers are always shown in blue while special requests are always shown in red on the kitchen display. They are also indented below the item or modifier that they apply to.

KD Pending is a feature that allows current or pending orders to be shown on the kitchen display; this means that the kitchen display will show the cart of a terminal in real time as items are added and modified. The order number will be an unrealistically high number in a red box.

From the Advanced Back Office, click on System, set KD pending to Yes, then click Save.

For each order on the kitchen display, there is a slot number under the X.

The slot number corresponds to the number key on the bump bar.

If an order has been completed, pressing this number on the bump bar will hide this order.

The other buttons have the following functions:

Bump will hide the order in slot 1.

Recall will un-hide the last order that was hidden.

Sum will open or close the summary pane.
