Billing at the counter (POS)

  1. 1Open the POS tab — your menu shows as a grid. Use the search box or category chips to find an item.
  2. 2Tap an item to add it to the cart; adjust quantity with the + / − buttons.
  3. 3Tap Discount to apply a % or flat amount. Tap Hold to park the order and come back to it later.
  4. 4Tap Pay ₹… → choose Cash / UPI / Card, then Pay. The bill is saved and printed (if a printer is set up).
  5. 5From Bill Preview you can re-print, or Share the bill on WhatsApp / SMS.

For dine-in: take orders by table and send them to the kitchen.

Tables & kitchen tickets (KOT)

  1. 1Turn on Table management in Settings → POS. The POS now opens to a grid of tables.
  2. 2Tap a table → add items just like billing. Tap KOT to send the order to the kitchen.
  3. 3Choose your KOT style in Settings → POS: Print mode prints a kitchen slip, or Display mode shows orders live on a Kitchen screen for the cook to mark ready.
  4. 4When the customer is done, open the table and tap Pay ₹… to settle.
Know what's running low — and let sales deduct stock for you.

Inventory & stock

  1. 1Open the Inventory tab → add stock items with a unit (kg/L/pcs), current quantity, cost and a reorder level.
  2. 2When stock hits the reorder level it's flagged as low — so you re-order before you run out.
  3. 3Use Recipes to link a dish to its ingredients (e.g. 1 Masala Dosa = batter + oil) — stock auto-deducts on every sale.
  4. 4Create Purchase Orders for a supplier, mark them Received to add stock, and Paid to record the payment.

  2. 2Pick a date range to see revenue, order count and a payment-method breakdown.
  3. 3The GST report gives your taxable sales and CGST/SGST split, ready for filing.
  4. 4Cashbook tracks cash in and out so your drawer always reconciles. Every report can be printed or shared as PDF.

Ask it anything

  • “How was today?” → today's sales, orders and top item
  • “What's running low?” → your low-stock items
  • “Show my recent orders” → a tappable list to reopen a bill

Tell it to do things

  • “Add Masala Dosa at ₹80” — adds a menu item

You're always in control

When you ask Mitra to do something, it shows a draft card first. Nothing changes until you tap Confirm — so you review every change before it's saved.
