The Operations section at /staff gives you a live window into everything happening on your floor right now. As an admin, you can observe and act on the full operational state — active tables, incoming orders, revenue metrics, and staff alerts — without switching roles or logging in as a different user. Everything your waiters and cashiers see is visible to you in one place.

Staff Dashboard Overview

The Staff Dashboard is your command center. It surfaces the most time-sensitive information at the top and lets you drill into details or trigger actions without navigating away.

Real-Time Alerts Panel

Two types of dismissible alert banners appear at the top of the dashboard whenever they are triggered: Alerts stack in order of arrival. Dismiss each one individually after you or a staff member has responded to it.

Stats Cards

Four summary cards give you an at-a-glance snapshot of current business activity:

Quick Actions Row

Below the stats cards, four shortcut buttons let you jump directly to the most-used sections of the platform:

Active Tables List

Scrolling past the quick actions, you’ll find a list of every table that currently has an open session. Each row shows:
  • Table name / number
  • Guest count for that session
  • Current total — the running bill value for all orders at that table
  • View button — opens the full table detail
  • Bill button — jumps directly to the bill for that table
Use this list to quickly spot high-value tables, identify tables that have been open a long time, or pull up a bill on request without hunting through the full tables view.

Recent Orders Table

The Recent Orders table shows the last 10 orders placed across all tables. Each row displays:
  • Order ID and Table
  • Items summary
  • Order total
  • Status badge — one of the following:
  • Quick action buttonsView opens the full order detail; Start Prep advances a PENDING order to PREPARING directly from this table.

System Notifications

At the bottom of the dashboard, the System Notifications panel surfaces any platform-level alerts — for example, integration errors, configuration warnings, or connectivity issues. When everything is running normally, the panel displays:
No New Notifications
Check this panel if staff report unexpected behavior, such as orders not routing to the kitchen or payment processing delays.
The Staff Dashboard at /staff is the same view your waiter and cashier staff use. As an admin you have full visibility and can act on everything they see — acknowledging alerts, advancing order statuses, and processing bills — without impersonating another user or changing your role.
