Set up and manage a Kitchen Station

Learn how to create and manage Kitchen Stations to determine where an item goes in the kitchen.

A Kitchen Station allows you to specify where an item should be prepared in the kitchen. For example, if you have a “Hot food” section in your kitchen, you can create a matching “Hot Food” Kitchen Station on the POS and then assign items that will be prepared in this section. You can also pair a printer to the Kitchen Station to print kitchen tickets based on which Kitchen Station an item is assigned.

In this article, you’ll learn how to add, edit, and delete a Kitchen Station.
