    area.

    One is used by each server to key in, review and verify table orders and controls allcustomer service functions throughout the meal. As the server leaves the table, clear,accurate orders and modifiers are recorded and dispatched to service printers

    Without errors in food or beverage preparation, runners deliver the product to thecustomers surprise and delight. Meanwhile, the server is already at the next table

    assisting guests. Later, the server prints the bill and records the payment. The data istransmitted to the system host computer for permanent record keeping.
