Meal counts from records, not from guesswork

Meal entitlement is defined per employee and entry is recorded by QR or card. The daily count goes to the kitchen and the entitlement and deduction go to payroll, from the same record.

What this runs on today

  • Meal vouchers
  • a hand-kept count book
  • a separate meal card system

Canteen management

It all comes together in one module.

Entered from the same screen, tracked from the same place.

Who it is for: Companies running their own canteen or buying catering against an invoice
Why it is needed

What happens without this module

The three situations we run into most often. If one of them sounds familiar, we have something to talk about.

  1. 01

    The count is a guess

    How many people will eat is estimated by eye; what is left over is waste and what runs short is a complaint.

  2. 02

    Deductions are keyed by hand

    The employee contribution is posted to payroll from a separate list at month end, and when someone disputes it there is nothing to point to.

  3. 03

    Entitlement rules go unchecked

    Who is entitled to which meal varies by shift and position, but the check happens at the door.

What it does

What the module covers

Every item is a real screen or flow in the product; we walk through them one by one in the demo.

QR and card entry

Employees pass with the QR code on their phone or their card, and the meal record is created instantly.

Entitlement rules

Which meal is earned is defined by shift, position and location; entries outside entitlement are shown separately.

Pre-ordering

Employees mark tomorrow’s meal in the app, so the kitchen sees the count a day ahead.

Deductions into payroll

Employee contributions and guest meals are produced as payroll deductions on their own.

Guests and contractors

Entries from outside the company are recorded at their own rate, and the contractor invoice listing comes from here.

Consumption reports

Consumption and cost by day, meal and location come as ready-made reports.

How it works

The cycle in four steps

Once it is set up, every period runs in the same order, and most of the steps happen on their own.

  1. Step 01

    Entitlement is defined

    Meal rights and contribution rules are entered by shift and position.

  2. Step 02

    Orders are collected

    Where pre-ordering is on, employees mark their choice and the kitchen sees the count in advance.

  3. Step 03

    Entry is recorded

    A QR or card scan records the entry instantly; entries outside entitlement are flagged.

  4. Step 04

    Deductions and reports

    At period end contributions go to payroll and the consumption listing goes to reporting.

In the field

How it is used, and under what constraints

Not promises with numbers, but real setups. Let us go into the one closest to yours in the demo.

  • Manufacturing

    A plant serving three meals

    The night shift has its own entitlement. It is read from the roster, so nobody checks a printed list at the door.

  • Construction

    Contractors on site

    Company staff and contractor crews use the same canteen. Entries are recorded at separate rates and the contractor invoice comes off the listing.

  • Hospitality

    A headcount that moves with the season

    Staffing grows and shrinks with the season. Because the daily count comes from real entries, the kitchen orders against occupancy.

It integrates with most card readers and turnstiles; the devices you use are assessed during the discovery call. QR entry needs no extra hardware at all.
