Pro Consoles:
- Point of Sale Terminal
- Lunchroom Live
The Pro Consoles add extra functionality in the lunchroom to manage order collection tracking and additions through snack sales and late lunches.
Point of Sale Terminal is a typical sales terminal that allows you to scan items with a barcode scanner attached to your computer, Chromebook or tablet*.
Lunchroom Live moves the paper reports online allowing the lunchroom helpers to mark off items as they're served, including optionally emailing the parents to let them know!
Lunchroom Live integrates the Point of Sale terminal sales experience to allow lunchroom helpers to add items too, all with the notes from the parent at hand.
* Handheld barcode scanners can be purchased for around $10 from online suppliers such as Amazon.
