A predictable five-step workflow
From menu to final receipt in one shared flow
Each stage has a clear owner and status, so the group knows when choices are still open and when the order is ready to place.
1. Prepare the menu
Create a reusable bucket with item names, prices, and the fee policy that applies to this order.
2. Start a group session
Choose the menu, open a collection session, and share its invitation with the people ordering.
3. Collect individual choices
Participants add their own quantities while the organizer monitors progress and the combined order.
4. Lock and confirm
Close collection before placing the restaurant order so later edits cannot silently change the final quantities.
5. Settle with a clear receipt
Review subtotal and configured fees, then use participant and item views to explain what each person owes.
