Setup Courses - different serving areas on same order.. with entity screens

In this tutorial I’ll show you how to prepare a Kitchen & Bar display to notify staff for new orders. We’ll start by creating action to update orders’ display state. [image] We want to update beverage orders display state as Bar. We’ll create Order Added to Ticket rule to handle this. [image] Hint: Create a default mapping for all rules that we’ll create on this tutorial. For simplicity I’ll skip that step for remaining rules. [image] So when we add an order to ticket it’s displ…

How can Increase font size for display tickets on kitchen screen

[NullException]

Please post your current printer template

[wattoo.biz]

according to given tutorial template is

[<T>Table - {ENTITY NAME:Table}]
{ORDERS}
<J>Total:|{TICKET TOTAL}
[ORDERS]
<J>{NAME}|{PRICE}

One more question can we use html template for this if we can then how it can be made

[QMcKay]

Have you tried the font-specific tags like:

<size>
<bold> or <b>
<color>

So something like this:

[<T>Table - {ENTITY NAME:Table}]
{ORDERS}
<J>Total:|{TICKET TOTAL}
[ORDERS]
<J><size 20><color Blue>{NAME}</color></size>|<color Red><b>{PRICE}</b></color>

I try but i think its not compatible look at screen shot

By using default template

By using your template

[JTRTech]

Your missing the closing > on size!!!

[wattoo.biz]

i did not understand

[QMcKay]

Try this (without color tags) …

[<T>Table - {ENTITY NAME:Table}]
{ORDERS}
<J>Total:|{TICKET TOTAL}
[ORDERS]
<J><size 20>{NAME}</size>|<b>{PRICE}</b>

You could also just increase the Font Size for the entire Ticket Lister and leave the <size> tags out of the Template - that would make everything display bigger …

@wattoo.biz

i did not understand

is not what Q gave you.
size is missing closing >
ie <size 20>

[QMcKay]

You really need to start experimenting and trying things yourself. I mean look at this - it is a Ticket Lister Widget. The formatting control is extensive …

<L00><block 10 transparent left *>
<L00><size 20>{ENTITY NAME:Customers}</size><br/>
<L00>[='{ENTITY DATA:Customers:Address}'.replace('<!rn>','<br/>')]
<L00></block>

<L00><block 10><size 40>${TICKET TOTAL}</size></block>

[wattoo.biz]

After some experiment i am able to make this template

[<L><b><size 30>Table - {ENTITY NAME:Table}</size></b>|<size 25>Ticket No.#{TICKET NO}</size>]
<F>=

<F>-
<L>{TICKET DATE} <b>{TICKET TIME}</b>| Waiter: {TICKET TAG:Waiter} 
{ORDERS}
[ORDERS]
<L><b><color Blue><size 30>{QUANTITY}</size></color></b> | <size 30>{NAME}</size>

Result is

But i need some more that i cant. so please help me for that
I show you picture to clear my idea.

And can we set a time limit in this method.
Waiting for Reply
Thanks

Use Printer Template help section to find related tags …

Whats about divider of different orders
I try this command
<L10>Order No:{ORDER NO}
an the result is

[QMcKay]

You need to put {ORDER NO} in the [ORDERS] section.

[<L><b><size 30>Table - {ENTITY NAME:Table}</size></b>|<size 25>Ticket No.#{TICKET NO}</size>]
<F>=

<F>-
<L>{TICKET DATE} <b>{TICKET TIME}</b>| Waiter: {TICKET TAG:Waiter} 
{ORDERS}
[ORDERS]
<L>{ORDER NO} {ORDER TIME}
<L><b><color Blue><size 30>{QUANTITY}</size></color></b> | <size 30>{NAME}</size>

[JTRTech]

In the context of your example that is ticket number, ticket being the bill/all orders, orders being individual products.

[wattoo.biz]

Its fine now
but if i apply this format it look like this

I think it should be like this

Here the Template is

[LAYOUT]
<T>Nawaab Restaurant-Ticket
<ec>
<J10>Date:{TICKET DATE} | Table:{ENTITY NAME:Table}
<J10>Time:{TIME} | Ticket No:{TICKET NO}
<L10>Served By:{TICKET TAG:Waiter}
<F>-
{ORDERS}
[ORDERS]
<L10>Order No:{ORDER NO}
<L10>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}
{ORDER TAGS}
<F>-
[ORDERS:Void]
<J00>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}|**Void**
{ORDER TAGS}

[ORDER TAGS]
-- Format for order tags
<L00>     * {ORDER TAG NAME}

[JTRTech]

Order number should be different for each order, hence why its inside the orders section.

As said above in the context your showing it wouldn’t be order number it would be ticket number…
What you label it is irreverent but that ticket has 3 order, there should be 3 order numbers.

[QMcKay]

@JTRTech

that ticket has 3 order, there should be 3 order numbers.

Not necessarily. If you add 3 Orders to a Ticket at the same time and close the ticket, it will submit all 3 orders under the same Order Number, having the same Order Time as well. An Order in this context is not a Product or Menu Item. An order can consist of multiple Items - it is time-based relative to when it was Submitted.

Not sure how to produce the Print in the way you want. Might be able to use some of the Grouping features and Group formatting in the Template.

[wattoo.biz]

Sir Order number is very important on every KOT because If a Ticket have 3 orders then its mean there is 3 KOT Prints with a single Ticket number.

Now i give you example
customer Order 2 Pespsi
Here Samba create order with Ticket#231

Customer again order 2 Pepsi
Here Samba create order definitely with Ticket#231

here we may confuse beacause of same customer and ticket so i need order number on kot.

i think you understand now

[QMcKay]

Try this, which uses {LAST ORDER TIME} which is a Global tag so it can be used outside of the [ORDERS] section …

<L00>Order Time: {LAST ORDER TIME}
{ORDERS}
[ORDERS]
<L10>- {QUANTITY} {NAME}
{ORDER TAGS}
<F>-

Keep in mind as well that the Template Preview may not show you exactly what will actually be printed. It is only meant as a helper. The physical Print might be different in some ways.
