Pending → Preparing → Ready → Served
A guided, forward-only status flow keeps the kitchen and the floor reading from the same ticket state.

Kitchen Order Ticket (KOT) System & Kitchen Display
Every order placed at the counter becomes a Kitchen Order Ticket the kitchen can act on immediately. Nexora’s kitchen display groups active KOTs into three live columns — Pending, Preparing and Ready — so kitchen staff always know what to cook next and front-of-house always knows what’s coming out.
A live board, not a paper ticket
Each ticket on the kitchen display shows its KOT or order number, the table (or order type for takeaway and delivery), how long it has been waiting, and the full item list with quantities — for example "2x Chicken Karahi". Orders are grouped by kitchen station, so a multi-section kitchen sees only what belongs to it.
One tap to move a ticket forward
Kitchen staff move a ticket forward with a single action — Start, Mark Ready, then Serve — and the system only allows forward progress, so a ticket can’t accidentally be pushed backward mid-service. Every status change syncs in real time, so the counter and the kitchen display are never out of step, even across multiple devices.
The order list behind every ticket
Beyond the live board, the full Orders screen tracks every order by table or type, customer, items, total, payment status and order status (Pending, Preparing, Served or Cancelled), with payment shown separately as Partial, Paid or Cancelled. Any order can be reopened to edit its status, adjust the paid amount, record a cancellation reason, print the ticket, or jump straight into billing.

What this covers
Table or order-type tagging
Dine-in tickets show the table number; takeaway and delivery tickets show the order type instead.
Station-grouped tickets
Kitchens with more than one prep area see only the tickets relevant to that station.
Same-day sales & expense report
A Today Report rolls up order-type sales, category sales and logged expenses for the shift.
