A starting point for every order, never a constraint
Save your regular setups as order templates and apply them in one click. Then change whatever you need, because every order is bespoke and the system knows it.
Week after week, you run the same buffet combinations. The corporate lunch for 30 people. The Friday school order. The wedding cocktail hour. With order templates, you build those packages once, apply them in a click, and change whatever this particular booking needs. Never start from scratch again, never locked into a fixed structure.
In short
- Apply a full product list to any order in one click: dishes, equipment, staff, notes, all of it
- Edit everything after applying: add dishes, change quantities, swap items, override prices, rewrite notes
- Every order is bespoke. The template is a starting point, never a constraint
- Consistent prices and portions for your whole sales team where it counts
- Templates grow with your range. Update the template once, and every new quote based on it benefits
What's inside an order template
You have set packages: the corporate lunch for 30 people, the wedding cocktail hour, the standing Friday school order. Order templates save the exact product mix, portions, equipment, and standard notes for each scenario. When a similar request comes in, you open a new order, apply the template, and Catermonkey fills in everything you'd otherwise have to type again.
A starting point, never a constraint
Every order is bespoke, and Catermonkey knows it. The bride changes her mind about the cake. The HR manager adds 12 vegetarians the day before. The charity dinner organiser wants to swap the dessert station for an ice cream cart. The template gives you a solid base so you never start from an empty order, but everything in it stays fully editable once you apply it. Add dishes. Remove dishes. Adjust quantities. Override prices. Rewrite notes. The template carries your standard; this order carries the details for this booking.
Consistency where it counts
Templates keep your prices and portions predictable across the whole team. When every corporate lunch starts from the same template, your kitchen sees consistent preparation lists, your accountant sees consistent margins, and your customers see consistent quality. You decide which parts of the template are fixed and which stay open to change.
