Mess and canteen management, from menu to monthly bill
A mess feeds hundreds of people three or four times a day, often with allergies and diet rules to respect. The mess module plans meal slots, menus and menu cycles, records who actually ate, and keeps each resident’s dietary profile in front of the kitchen.
Behind the counter it tracks recipes and production batches, stock lots and receiving, purchase requests, wastage and food-safety checks, and creates billing drafts from meal plans and attendance.
Made for
- Residential schools and hostels
- College messes
- Staff canteens
- Coaching hostels
