You can 'club / group items' on your Flipdish KDS which enables you to group items that have the same modifiers and instruction notes together into a single line. You'll easily be able to see how many identical items you need to prepare for each order and if you're using a label printer, you'll be able to print multiple labels with one click, saving you time.
Instructions to activate this:
Step 1 - Click on the settings wheel in the bottom right corner of the KDS
Step 2 - Click 'Control' at the top of the list
Step 3 - Tick the 'Club items' box
Quickly see how many similar items you need to make across all active orders
It will now be easier to identify how many of a single item you need to make and you'll also be able to see how many in total you need to prepare at this point in time across all your orders so you can prepare them at the same time.
When you club items and look at the total number that you need to prepare across all active orders, you can decide to ignore or include modifiers and instruction notes in the grouping process.
Instructions to activate this:
Step 1 - Click on the settings wheel in the bottom right corner of the KDS
Step 2 - Click 'Control' at the top of the list
Step 3 - Tick the 'Strict Comparison' box
