HelloBooks restaurant POS ringing up a five-item order with a live running total

Restaurant POS is closer to a workflow tool than a billing tool — every order moves through KOT, kitchen, expedition, table, and bill. HelloBooks runs the whole loop on the same engine that closes your books, so dine-in, takeaway, delivery, and online aggregator orders all hit one revenue line.

HOW IT WORKS

Every detail, dialled in

Built for the till, validated against the canonical accounting engine — so every POS sale closes the books cleanly.

🧑‍🍳

KOT routing per station

A single bill might split across four KOTs — hot kitchen, cold kitchen, bar, dessert. Each station prints what it owns; the expediter pulls the bill together at the pass.

  • Per-station KOT routing
  • Modifiers print on the right ticket
  • Quantity-fire ordering
  • Recall / void with reason
🪑

Table state machine

Table is a first-class object — open / occupied / cleaning / billed. The host sees the floor at a glance; the cashier opens a tab against a table; the runner sees what is ready.

  • Floor plan per outlet
  • Open / occupied / billed states
  • Tab merge + split
  • Reservation linkage
🛵

Dine / takeaway / delivery

Three order modes, three slightly different workflows, one POS. Delivery integrates with aggregator webhooks; takeaway gets a pickup time; dine-in lives on a table.

  • Three order modes
  • Zomato / Swiggy orders in one inbox
  • Pickup-time SMS
  • Delivery driver assignment
  • Channel tag on every order for per-channel sales and margin reporting

Sample invoices

The bills your restaurant counter prints

Every dine-in, takeaway or delivery order settles into a clean, GST-ready receipt — item lines, tax, packing charge, round-off and tender — printed at the till and posted straight to your books.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How are modifiers priced?

Per-modifier price (extra cheese +30, no onion 0). Modifiers print on the KOT and on the bill.

Can I split a table bill?

Yes — by item or even-split, up to six tabs per parent. Linked bills inherit the dining session for analytics.

Does this cover bar tabs?

Yes. A bar tab is a long-running open bill on the bar “table”. Settle on departure.

How do I handle complimentary items?

Manager passcode + reason; the line shows zero price on the bill but is recorded for COGS and analytics.

Can customers leave feedback after the meal?

Yes — the receipt can carry a feedback QR that opens a quick rating-and-comment form. Responses aggregate in the back office so you see satisfaction by outlet without a separate survey tool.
