In short

How do I get alerted when a GoTab QR or online order is not routed to the kitchen?

WebRun monitors GoTab every few minutes, checks the QR and online order queue for tickets that have not been acknowledged by a kitchen display station, and alerts the manager in Slack with the order details and wait time. Routing gaps are caught in real time so no guest order goes unnoticed during a busy service.

  • Unacknowledged QR and online tickets flagged within minutes during service
  • Manager alerted in Slack before a guest order is significantly delayed
  • Both in-venue QR and advance online order channels monitored in one workflow

Questions, answered

Does it handle GoTab QR orders and online advance orders separately?

Yes. It checks both the live in-venue QR order queue and scheduled online advance orders, and flags unacknowledged tickets in either channel.

Can it adjust the wait-time threshold?

Yes. Set the acknowledgment threshold to match your kitchen SLA, such as 3 minutes for walk-up QR orders or 10 minutes for advance orders.

Will it keep alerting for the same ticket after the first message?

It checks on each run. If the order is still unacknowledged it will repeat the alert, giving you a clear signal that the issue is ongoing.
