Setting Up Print Headers
Print Headers group and order products on kitchen dockets, making large orders easier to read and prepare (e.g., “MAINS”, “DRINKS”, “DESSERTS” sections on a docket).
Quick Steps
Click Here For Workflow
- In HQ, go to Site → Print Headers
- Click + Add Print Header
- Enter a name and a weight (number for ordering - smaller prints first)
- Click Save
Assigning Print Headers
Print headers can be assigned in two ways:
| Method | How | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| Directly to a product | Product edit → Print Header dropdown | Higher priority |
| To a tag | Product Tags → Edit tag → Print Header dropdown | Lower priority |
A print header assigned directly to the product overrides the tag’s print header.
Ordering Print Headers
The weight field controls print order - smaller numbers print first.
Tip: Number in multiples of 10 (10, 20, 30…) to leave room for future headers between existing ones.
Editing and Deleting
- Edit: Double-click the print header → make changes → Save
- Delete: Click to select → click Delete Print Header button
