In a restaurant you don’t fire everything to the kitchen at once: starters go first, mains when the table is finishing, then desserts. Coursing organizes the check into courses and lets you send each course at the right moment.
Coursing is optional and turned on per location. While it is off, sending fires everything in one go — see taking orders. To turn it on and define your courses, see the menu and items.

​
The check grouped by course

When coursing is on, the right panel groups lines by course. Each course has its own header — an order number, its name (for example STARTERS, MAIN COURSE, DESSERTS) and the item count — and its own Send button. An item joins its default course automatically, as set in the backoffice. Items with no course gather at the bottom, under NO COURSE.

​
Sending a course

There are two ways to fire to the kitchen:
1

The main button: Send + the next course

At the bottom of the panel, the large button reads Send followed by the name of the next course to fire — for example Send Starters. Tap it: only that course goes to the kitchen, then the register takes you back to the floor plan if the order is at a table, otherwise to the orders list. The button then shows the next course (Send Main course).
2

A course's own Send button

Each course header has its own Send button. Use it to fire a course out of order — for example to start the desserts early.

​
Sending everything at once

Next to the main button, the ▾ caret opens Send all courses: every pending course fires together. Handy for a table in a hurry. The caret only appears when at least two courses are still waiting.
A course that has been sent reads Sent and its lines are locked. You can keep building the later courses in the meantime.

​
Moving a line to another course

An item landed in the wrong course, or you want to move it?
1

Long-press the line

Press and hold a pending line: it lifts and a MOVE TO COURSE menu appears.
2

Pick the course

Tap the target course — the line joins that group right away. Tap No course to take it out of any course.
Only pending lines move: a line that was already sent is locked into its course, since the kitchen has already received it.

​
The kitchen ticket

Each course you send prints one kitchen ticket per course, with the course name at the top. The kitchen sees clearly what to prepare, and when. See receipts and printing.
For an item to land in the right course automatically, give it a default course in the backoffice. Otherwise it arrives under NO COURSE and you move it by hand. See the menu and items.
