DakaarEvery feature, working offline
Built for how Indian restaurants actually run — from the first KOT of lunch service to the day-end cash count.
Orders & billing
Fast order screen
Categories down the side, item tiles in the middle, live cart on the right. Variants (Half/Full), modifiers (Extra Cheese), and item notes ("no onion") built in.
KOT firing
Send only newly added items to the kitchen — the kitchen never sees the whole running order twice. Edit or cancel sent items with a manager PIN and a printed "what changed" slip.
Flexible payments
Cash, card, UPI, online or any mix on a single bill (₹500 cash + ₹200 UPI). Change due computed automatically.
Credit customers
Mark bills as Due with the customer's name and phone. Settle later from the Dues page.
GST compliance
GST groups per item (5% / 12% / 18%), GSTIN and FSSAI on every printed bill, full tax breakdown at checkout.
Floor & kitchen
Table management
Sections for AC, Non-AC, Garden — each with its own tax group. Live colour-coded floor plan: free, occupied, billed.
Dine-in, takeaway, delivery
Order-type pills switch the flow instantly. Takeaway and delivery need no tables at all.
Printer routing
Multiple printers with per-category routing — tandoor items to the tandoor printer, everything else to the main kitchen. 80mm and 58mm paper supported, per-printer copy counts and margins.
Kitchen display & tablet ordering
Kitchen Display System (free)
A dedicated kitchen screen showing every KOT as a live ticket the moment it's fired. Pairs with your main POS over WiFi using a 6-digit code — no extra license, unlimited screens.
Food Ready → Dispatch flow
Cooks tap Food Ready (ticket turns green on every screen), runners tap Dispatch. Recall brings a ticket back if needed. Paper KOTs keep printing alongside — the KDS never replaces your printers unless you want it to.
Station screens
A tandoor screen that shows only tandoor items, a dessert screen for desserts — each KDS filters by menu categories. Timers turn amber then red with a sound alert when a ticket waits too long.
Tablet ordering — no app store
Any Android or Apple tablet/phone on your WiFi becomes an ordering pad in the browser. Scan a QR from Settings once and it's ready. Updates come automatically from the POS.
Salesman PINs
Floor staff get tablet-only PINs — they can take orders and fire KOTs but can never open billing, reports or settings. Every order is tagged for commission reports.
Straight to the kitchen
A KOT fired from a tablet prints on your kitchen printers with the same category routing, and pops onto every KDS with a chime — exactly like one fired at the counter.
Outdoor catering & banquets
Event book
Weddings, receptions, corporate orders — each event carries customer, venue, date, pax and notes, with a status flow from enquiry to settled.
Per-pax & fixed pricing
Price the buffet per plate and the live counters as fixed items. Change the pax once and every per-pax line recomputes instantly.
Misc charges
Delivery, transport, staff & service, tent and setup, crockery, cook charges or anything custom — flat or per-pax, each one taxable or not.
Proforma invoices with revisions
Send a numbered proforma for confirmation. Menu or pax changed? Generate Rev 2 — every version stays on record and reprints identically.
Advances & printed receipts
Collect booking advances in instalments — each one prints a numbered receipt with the running balance. Over-collection is blocked automatically.
Final invoice, tax optional
Raise the invoice with advances adjusted and balance payable. Charge GST at 5%, 18% or a custom rate — or none — per event, with a clean CGST/SGST split.
Control & accountability
Roles & PINs
Admin, Manager and Cashier roles with per-role permissions. Every order is tied to the PIN that took it.
Audit trail
Bill cancellations need a Manager PIN and a reason, stored in the audit log. A cancellation slip prints to the kitchen automatically.
Leakage report
Cancelled KOTs, modified KOTs, KOTs that never reached a bill, cancelled bills and discounts — all in one report that catches losses before they become habits.
Shifts & cash drawer
Open with a float, record drops and top-ups, close with a physical count. Variance flagged automatically. Multiple shifts per day supported.
Insight & data
Sales dashboard
Gross sales with payment-mode breakdown, daily bar charts, order-type split. Preset ranges from Today to Last Month, plus custom dates.
Detailed reports
Per-cashier sales, top items by quantity and revenue, edits & cancellations log, and a printable day-end summary.
Cloud sync (optional)
Watch live sales, KOTs and bills from any browser, anywhere. Off by default — and your restaurant data is never uploaded, only status metadata.
Automatic backups
Scheduled backups to your own OneDrive folder — hourly to weekly, with configurable retention. Your database is a standard SQLite file you can restore any time.
Excel menu import
Download the template, fill one row per item, upload. Categories are auto-created. Perfect for menus with 50+ items.
Menu card PDF export
Export your menu as a print-ready A4 PDF in four styles — Classic, Modern, Elegant or Midnight. Pick the rate column, columns and margins; variants print as Half/Full prices with veg marks and GST notes. Update a rate, re-export, reprint — no designer needed.
Multi-store
One license per PC, each fully independent. The cloud dashboard gets a store switcher so you can watch every outlet from one login.
