Storage Locations

A storage location says where an item is kept: the chiller, the freezer, the dry store. It is set on the product, prints on prep labels, and tells whoever walks into the kitchen where the item should be.

Every branch starts with a list built around temperature control rather than furniture, because that is what a label needs to say:

  • Refrigerated (0–5°C)
  • Frozen (≤ -18°C)
  • Ambient / room temperature
  • Chilled display
  • Hot holding (≥63°C)
  • Dry store
  • Bar / cellar
  • Prep - chilled line

Rename these to match your kitchen, or replace them entirely. Nothing in the list is fixed.

  1. Go to Settings → Storage Locations
  2. Click Add location
  3. Enter the name and save

Open the ⋮ menu on a location’s card:

  • Edit renames it. The new name is what prints on labels from then on
  • Delete takes it off the list

Deleting only changes what you can pick from now on. Labels already printed keep the location they were printed with, which is what your records depend on.

The list belongs to the branch selected in the sidebar, so a site with a walk-in and a site with two under-counter fridges do not have to share one list.

The branch settings hold the same list as a Catalogue selector, under Settings → Organisation. Managing it from this page is the simpler route.

  • On the product form in the dashboard, as Storage location
  • On the device, in the print details, where it can be changed for a single print of a prep product
  • On the printed prep label, under the allergen line

Changes reach your devices on the next sync, which runs every few minutes. To pull them straight away, tap the sync icon in the top right of Settings on the device.
