Online Food and Beverage Sales: Viewing Orders

There are 3 places where you can view your orders from the RTS App: The Pickup Viewer, Remote Printer slips, and the Order Manager.

Pickup Viewers and Remote Printers will only show/print the order when the customer checks in.

The Order window is the only way to view completed and not-checked in orders.

Order Manager


The Order manager allows for the most complete view of incoming and in-process orders.
This image can be accessed by navigating to Actions -> Orders
