Kitchen Ticket Template, how to sort by portion size?

Hi there,

I have the great sambapos 4 in my two restaurants, in the first one I have it setup just perfect for my kind of restaurant, on the second one I have some issues.

My kitchen template groups the products by category correctly (starters, burgers, specials…), but in order to make the ticket easier to read I need to SORT the grouped products by PORTION SIZE.

EX:

  • BURGERS -
    200grs Classic
    200grs CheeseBacon
    100grs Spanishcheese
    100grs Basic

What I really need is to have all the burgers with the same portion size listed together, I dont care if the 100grs burgers goes first or last.

I have created one product for each receipe or burger name, and each product have all the portion sizes defined inside (100grs, 200grs…)

Thanks guys :slight_smile:

Might be a bit tricky to make that work but I am guessing it could be done, I think with Order States.

Before providing any possible “solutions”, please show a screenshot of one of your Products to show how the Group Code, Product Tag, and Portions are set up.

Also, copy/paste your current Printer Template here.

Hi!

Thanks for your interest.

I have many different burger recipes, so I have created one product for each recipe:

CHEESEBURGER
CHEESEBACON
ARGENTINA

I also have many different burger patty sizes, 110grs, 220grs, 1kg… so every product (recipe) has defined as many PORTIONS as diffent burger patty sizes I have:

CHEESEBURGER (PRODUCT)
PORTION. 110grs 6.50€
PORTION. 220grs 7.50€
PORTION. KILLER 11.50€

Here you can see a typical order (yes, we take food orders at 23:31 and more beer at 24:11 hahahaha :joy: ):

The customers ordered the same burger recipe “ARGENTINA” but with different sizes, one wanted the KILLER size and the other one the 330grs:

And here the kitchen ticket:

The ticket is in two parts, first one for the starters “ENTRANTES” and the second part for the Burgers and “CUSTOM” where ribs “Costillas” go.

As you can see, in order to make easier to read for the kitchen, I’ve modified the ticket to:

. GROUP the orders by GROUPCODE “Burger, Starters, Custom…”
. Show the AMOUNT and PORTION first, then product name “1. 330grs ARGENTINA”
. Under each product I show order tags “sideorders, meat done or welldone…”

What I really need to do is:

Group orders by GROUPCODE and sort all the orders with the same portion size together, something like:

========BURGER=========
1 330grs ARGENTINA
1 330grs CHEESEBURGER
2 110grs ALL AMERICAN
1 110grs ARGENTINA
1 KILLER CHEESEBURGER
1 KILLER SUPERBACON

Now the sort is just the order the waitress has taken the order, and big tables are a pain to read.

I forgot to copy my template, I will post it here asap.
