How Touch Screen Is Used in Restaurants
By Jack S. Waverly, eHow Contributor
Order Taking and Tracking
1.
In the restaurant setting, touch screens have three important
functions. The most visual use of touch screens in restaurants is for
order taking and management. This function is in place in almost every
chain restaurant today from fast food to sit-down restaurants.
Touch-screen ordering is used by restaurant staff members to enter a
customer's order into the main system. From there, it is sent to the
kitchen and posted into the cash management set-up. When the kitchen
crew sees the order on its screen, it knows what it is, the time it was
entered and where it is going. Touch screens in restaurants also help
to eliminate miscommunnication between order takers and kitchen staff.
Cash Management
2.
Cash management is another common use of touch-screen technology in
restaurants. After the order is entered into the main system, the cash
handlers or management can use the touch screen to pull up the entire
order history quickly, including the total bill due. Touch screens are
an efficient and faster method of handling information. There is no
need to learn keystrokes or complex software. Most touch screens used
in restaurants have a simple menu layout that brings up the needed
screen and access to information. Most touch screens are set up on a
computer networking system where there is one central processor and
multiple terminals can access that information. This means that any
information required can be accessed at any terminal throughout the
establishment.
Inventory Control and Management
3.
Inventory control and tracking is the third use of touch screens in
restaurants. Since both order taking and cash management are handled
through one central system, the touch screen technology can also
integrate inventory handling at any point in the process. Again, with
minimal space used, any trained person can handle tracking and ordering
of inventory at any point in the network easily. This saves on having
the need for special paperwork or added hardware or items being carried
around. Each section of the restaurant can have inventories entered
directly from their section via touch screens that can be either
built-in to a station, hanging from the ceiling or part of a portable
notebook.
Efficiency and Accuracy
4.
The use of touch screens in restaurants is the maximum, most-efficient
use of space. Another benefit is the ability to control costs. The need
to wait, view the food or deal with concerns and questions can all be
handled by the use of the touch screen. Another positive aspect of the
touch screen technology in restaurants is the accuracy the system
ensures. When a customer's order is entered on the screen, it goes
directly to the kitchen. It is almost impossible to have a problem with
an order placed this way.
