Managers will have the ability to make adjustments to times and clock ins on the ipad Front Of House

Would like the option to bypass the required number of seats when starting a new table. The table could default to 1 seat and the server can add seats manually if needed. A lot of our locations like to send everything in under seat 1 and split the check at the end. 

After you make a future order if the customer calls and wants to adjust the date and time of the order there is no way to do it. Without canceling it and redoing the order. There needs to be a way to do this.

We have multiple customers that ask us to increase font size but then want us to decrease the font size of all the information at the top, as it uses a lot of paper. The exception here is the Table number or name. Most location want that portion of the ticket to stand out either in larger font or in red. 

Introduction:  We have a total of 15 very high-volume Italian/pizza bar-restaurants with an average of 8 workstations per unit. We have just completed our first 9-station store conversion to Linga, but have some reservations.

Background:

Linga's Android system DOES have two sections of the ticket they have called "ORDER SUMMARY" (station-specific items only) and "ITEM SUMMARY" (all ticket items w/o modifiers) to allow Line Cooks to see the full ticket for timing, but differentiate those items that they need to be cooking.

Problem:

          1)    The ITEM SUMMARY items will repeat the items already listed above within the ORDER SUMMARY causing confusion among line cooks mostly, but also utilizes 25% more paper or better. This is unacceptable for high-volume full service establishments where kitchen output is directly related to the efficiency of the line...being able to read tickets from a distance and clearly, quickly decipher next-steps is mission critical.

          2)    The kitchen tickets' ITEM SUMMARY also includes things that are totally irrelevant, like drinks that are also directed to the remote bar service well printers. Imagine what this looks like for a party of 6 or more with appetizers and entrees...the tickets are LONG and confuse cooks with unnecessary items.

Solution:

          i.    A simple solution is create a logic that will not allow any items from the ORDER SUMMARY to be duplicated within the ITEM SUMMARY. Additionally, certain categories should be able to be excluded; e.g. Beer, Wine, Liquor, etc.

          ii.    The better solution would have been to never create that funky system in the first place, and do what every other POS does... get rid of the sections and have station-specific items in bold w/ mods, the rest of the items regular font w/o mods.

Conclusion:

EITHER of these proposed resolutions would be wonderful...whichever is faster, frankly! After 25 years in the business using Aloha, Squirrel, Toast, Micros, Rpower, SkyTab, Digital Dining, and Clover POS...frankly I was shocked to see this clunky of a solution from the founders of Benseron.  It is, however, better than nothing.

I would be nice to have an option where we can split the payment for all types of payment, such as, dine in, take out, to go, etc..

For Example: If customer calls and place an order of 5 dinners for pick-up and when they come into store with 4 other friends  and they want to pay for separate dinners

- Need to be able to split this

In Back Office under settings we should have a log off option in (X) number of seconds

- This feature will log off a user after (X) number of seconds of inactivity

Ability to cap tip by % of base amount. % to be defined in backoffice. I have several merchants who have accidentally keyed in very large tips by accident and it creates a situation where if you refund there is a risk of a chargeback too then you could potentially lose a large amount of $.

We're building out a wine shop with OLO.  The names of the wines are much longer than what the POS will support WHEN there is a picture.  I'd like to see a toggle that allows us to choose if the picture would be shown on the POS.

Is there any way we can put this "Open Dollar Gratuity" request on their future update board?

This seems to be a very hot topic with our 1st customer Pannullo's using Linga and they are not happy about it.
They want to be able to do an Open Dollar Gratuity on the POS system.
