Settings

Use Settings to manage the basic information and preferences that affect ordering, delivery, suppliers, and company-specific operations. Settings are company-specific where relevant. If you manage more than one company or location, always make sure the correct company is selected before changing delivery locations, vendor contacts, or order preferences.

Settings Sections

Account

Manage your personal user account. Use this section to:
  • Update your profile details
  • Change your password
  • Manage your contact information
  • Select your preferred language
Your account is used for login, authentication, email verification, password reset, and language-based communication.

Company Profile

Manage the business information of the selected company. Use this section to update:
  • Business name
  • Phone number
  • Street and house number
  • Postal code and city
  • Website
  • Notification email address
The notification email address is important because system messages and order-related notifications may be sent there.

Delivery Locations

Manage the places where orders can be delivered. Use this section to:
  • Add delivery locations
  • Edit delivery location details
  • Delete delivery locations
  • Store customer numbers for delivery-related workflows
  • Assign delivery locations to storage units where inventory is used
Delivery locations are required when placing an order.

Companies

Manage multiple companies or restaurant locations under one account. Use this section to:
  • View all companies linked to your user account
  • Add another company
  • Switch between companies
  • Keep orders, delivery locations, suppliers, inventory, and settings separated by company
Each company has its own data. Orders, storage units, inventory, delivery locations, and vendor contacts are handled separately.

Vendor Contacts

Manage suppliers that are used for direct customer orders. Use this section to:
  • Add vendor contacts
  • Edit vendor name or email address
  • Deactivate vendor contacts
  • Reuse recent vendor contacts when placing orders
Vendor contacts are used when placing orders without a connected vendor catalog.

Vendor Connections

Manage supplier relationships and invitations. Use this section to:
  • View pending vendor invitations
  • Accept vendor invitations
  • Reject vendor invitations
  • Work with connected vendors
  • Access vendor products once a relationship exists
Connected vendors can provide product catalogs and receive structured orders.

Order Preferences

Configure how orders are sent and exported. Use this section to:
  • Choose the order attachment format
  • Use PDF for readable order documents
  • Use CSV for structured order data
  • Manage draft, scheduled, and sent orders through the order workflow
Orders can be created as:
  • Send now: the order is sent immediately
  • Draft: the order is saved but not sent
  • Scheduled: the order is sent at a future time

Inventory Settings

If inventory features are enabled, settings also affect stock and reporting workflows. Use this area to manage:
  • Storage units
  • Ingredients
  • Product-to-ingredient mappings
  • Packaging levels
  • Recipes and sub-recipes
  • POS mappings
  • Inventory alerts
  • Reorder rules
These settings are used for receiving orders into stock, posting waste, transferring inventory, creating stock counts, and calculating reports.

Accessing Settings

To access settings:
  1. Click Settings in the main navigation
  2. Select the area you want to manage
  3. Check that the correct company is selected before making company-specific changes
Common settings areas include:
  • Account

  • Companies
  • Vendor Contacts
  • Order Preferences
  • Inventory Settings

Why Settings Matter

Accurate Orders

Settings define where orders are delivered, which suppliers are available, and how order documents are created.

Clean Company Separation

If you manage multiple companies or locations, each company keeps its own:
  • Delivery locations
  • Vendor contacts
  • Vendor relationships
  • Orders
  • Inventory
  • Reports

Reliable Notifications

Keeping the notification email address current helps ensure that important order and account messages arrive correctly.

Inventory Accuracy

Storage units, ingredient mappings, recipes, and alert settings help keep stock movements traceable and reports reliable.
