The dashboard

The dashboard (Today → Overview) is the first thing you see after signing in. It is a live snapshot of the day.

The four metric cards

Across the top are four live figures:

• Orders today — all orders due today, across every channel.
• Awaiting preparation — confirmed orders queued to be cut and packed.
• Deliveries today — orders due to go out for delivery today.
• Needs attention — orders awaiting preparation, low-stock items and open callbacks combined into one "look at me" number.

The live order queue

Below the cards is a table of the most recent orders, with four columns:

• Order — the order number
• Customer — the customer's name
• Fulfilment — the slot, or the method (collection or delivery)
• Status — the current fulfilment status (for example preparing, ready)

Each row links straight to the order — the fastest way to jump into whatever is happening right now. Full order handling is covered in Managing orders.

Operational signals

A sidebar highlights things that may need action, each linking to the right page:

• Open callbacks — customers waiting for a call back.
• Low stock today — cuts running low or sold out.
• Failed background events — any behind-the-scenes tasks that did not complete, linking to the activity log.
