It carries the two-column menu, the Send KOT button and confirmation-only removal below. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-19-a-waiter-removes-a-fired-item-with-one-confirmat https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-19-a-waiter-removes-a-fired-item-with-one-confirmat Sat, 19 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app Taking the last unit of a fired line off a check asks the captain to confirm once and records who did it. A busy floor cannot wait for a manager; the captain is responsible and the removal stays in the check's history. When every item is removed and nothing was paid, the table frees itself. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-19-the-fire-button-says-what-it-does-send-kot https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-19-the-fire-button-says-what-it-does-send-kot Sat, 19 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app The button that sends a round to the kitchen reads Send KOT with the count of new items, and the menu shows two columns with a separate quantity per portion, so Half and Full of one dish sit on their own lines. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-register-0-1-12-for-windows-and-mac https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-register-0-1-12-for-windows-and-mac Fri, 18 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Installed tills pick this up on their own. It carries the printer and second-till fixes from the 17 and 18 September wave: a part refund now reaches the other tills, and a Mac register no longer freezes at start-up. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-gst-is-one-choice-for-the-whole-store-and-every https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-gst-is-one-choice-for-the-whole-store-and-every Fri, 18 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard, Register, Printing Settings → GST takes one answer: Not GST-registered, GST 5%, GST 18% (restaurant in a hotel) or Composition scheme, and every dish picks the store's rate up at every till. A menu whose dishes carry no rate shows a warning on the Menu page with one button, Apply GST 5% to every dish with no rate, counted across the whole menu. Nobody sets GST dish by dish any more. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-a-new-store-starts-with-gst-switched-off https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-a-new-store-starts-with-gst-switched-off Fri, 18 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard, Register A restaurant that signs up today rings dishes at their menu price and prints no tax line, so there is nothing to find in Settings first. An owner who is GST-registered switches it on in the dashboard and the whole menu charges from the next sale, with no dish-by-dish pass. Existing stores are untouched. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-the-payment-receipt-email-with-the-gst-invoice-p https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-18-the-payment-receipt-email-with-the-gst-invoice-p Fri, 18 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard Paying for EasyKOT sends the owner a receipt with the tax invoice attached. Before this the email never left, while the payment and the invoice themselves were fine. The "we couldn't collect your renewal" email had the same fault and now sends too. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-composition-scheme-store-prints-a-bill-of-supp https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-composition-scheme-store-prints-a-bill-of-supp Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard, Register, Captain app, Printing Settings → GST takes Not GST-registered, Regular GST or Composition scheme, and says which document that store's bills will be before you save. A composition store's bills come out headed BILL OF SUPPLY with the declaration the law prescribes and no tax rows, and the register and the captain ring every item at 0%. A regular store's bill is now headed TAX INVOICE, prints the rate beside the tax (CGST 2.5%, SGST 2.5%) and ends with the computer-generated signature line. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-register-0-1-11-and-in-app-updates-that-can-actu https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-register-0-1-11-and-in-app-updates-that-can-actu Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Until this build no register could install an update from inside the app: the download failed its check at the end and the strip quietly vanished. 0.1.11 downloads with a progress bar and a Restart to update button, checks again every four hours instead of only at launch, shows its version at the bottom left of the rail, and reaches Macs as well as Windows. A register on 0.1.1 to 0.1.8 has to be reinstalled by hand once from easykot.com/download; after that updates arrive on their own. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-dismiss-the-red-print-alert-for-a-whole-printer https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-dismiss-the-red-print-alert-for-a-whole-printer Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing One Dismiss covers that printer's outage, so new orders to the same offline printer do not bring the bar back. It returns only for something new: another printer going down, the same printer failing again after it recovered, or a ticket that ran out of retries. No ticket is dropped, and Settings → Print queue still lists every one of them. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-part-pay-now-takes-only-the-amount-you-type https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-part-pay-now-takes-only-the-amount-you-type Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Arming Part pay used to leave the full bill sitting in the amount box, so pressing Settle collected the whole check with no warning. The box is blank now, and Settle stays disabled, with the reason beside it, until a smaller amount is typed. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-fourteen-register-fixes-floor-kitchen-board-and https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-fourteen-register-fixes-floor-kitchen-board-and Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Kitchen screen, Printing A second party seated on an occupied table now shows under Counter & parcels instead of disappearing, bumping a ticket clears it from the kitchen board at once, and Remove on a printer asks first, naming the printer, its address and role. A till with no printer saved shows its stuck queue in the tickets bar rather than leaving the jobs invisible, and a barcode scanner can no longer keep ringing up sales past the subscription lock. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-disconnected-register-says-so-instead-of-blami https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-disconnected-register-says-so-instead-of-blami Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Owner dashboard Revoke a till from Devices and it now reads "This register was disconnected by the owner", points at Settings → Register, and offers Connect this register on the lock screen. Selling keeps working offline and no unsynced sale is touched. "Sync failed" also means sync failed now: at every boot the register used to report a clean sync without reaching anything. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-part-refund-taken-at-one-till-now-shows-on-the https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-part-refund-taken-at-one-till-now-shows-on-the Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Captain app Refund part of a settled bill at the counter and the second register, or the captain's phone, now shows it. Until now the other terminals dropped every partial refund and every part payment, so one till said refunded ₹200 and the next still said paid in full. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-crash-while-printing-leaves-the-ticket-on-the https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-crash-while-printing-leaves-the-ticket-on-the Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Printing, Register Force-quit the register with a KOT going to a hung printer, reopen it, and the job appears under Settings → Print queue as "may have printed", with It printed and Print again. It used to sit at Printing forever with both buttons dead. A printer moved from Kitchen to Receipt also stops taking that station's KOTs, which it used to keep doing silently. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-the-bill-on-screen-is-the-same-document-as-the-b https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-the-bill-on-screen-is-the-same-document-as-the-b Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing A GST-registered store's settle preview now reads TAX INVOICE and carries the address, state, GSTIN and FSSAI line, matching the slip the printer produces. It used to say BILL over its own CGST and SGST rows. A store with no GSTIN saved under Invoice identity still says BILL, on both. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-captain-app-nine-fixes-from-pin-guessing-to-an-h https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-captain-app-nine-fixes-from-pin-guessing-to-an-h Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app, Printing Five wrong manager PINs on a phone now cost time, climbing to a minute, whether they were typed on the sign-in pad or the approval sheet. Check printer stops claiming a Bluetooth printer accepted a connection when nothing ever knocked, a test print whose link drops no longer marks a working printer offline, and a dish taken off stock while a portion sheet is open can no longer be rung up. A waiter who glances at a notification and comes straight back is still connected. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-owner-dashboard-fixes-across-menu-staff-pay-bill https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-owner-dashboard-fixes-across-menu-staff-pay-bill Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard A dish quick-added on a GST store inherits the store's rate instead of billing ₹0 tax, removing the sample menu keeps the dishes you imported under the same names, and deleting a category drops its dishes to Uncategorised instead of losing them. Paying a daily-wage cook while taking back an advance records the full wage in the labour report, an amount typed as "30,000" saves as ₹30,000, and deleting an expense row needs a second press. Billing says Payment received only once the payment is confirmed. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-nine-fixes-to-the-register-s-money-kitchen-board https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-nine-fixes-to-the-register-s-money-kitchen-board Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Kitchen screen, Printing A dish whose portions are all out of stock is refused by name instead of selling at the seed price, two people hitting Fire on the same table no longer send the first round to the pass twice, and two tills opened together cannot collide on KOT numbers. A table settled on a captain phone now prints a bill carrying a real invoice number in the till's own series, with its issue date. A check voided on a phone while the till takes cash for it stays settled, and the day's takings keep the money. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-the-owner-dashboard-fits-a-phone https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-the-owner-dashboard-fits-a-phone Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard Below tablet width the sidebar folds into a Menu button and every page gets the whole screen instead of the strip beside the rail. Tap Menu and the same navigation slides in from the left. The Invoice identity card is full width again, so a 14-digit FSSAI number can be read. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-menu-upload-that-is-turned-away-now-says-why https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-17-a-menu-upload-that-is-turned-away-now-says-why Thu, 17 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard An import refused before it starts, a PDF over the limit or a connection that dropped, now shows a sentence naming the sizes it takes, a PDF up to 25 MB and a photo up to 10 MB, instead of an error with no explanation. Both import cards and the photo lane are covered. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-import-with-ai-is-its-own-card-separate-from-the https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-import-with-ai-is-its-own-card-separate-from-the Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard Drop a PDF, photos of the printed card, or a spreadsheet in your own layout with no required column names, and the AI reads it while you review every dish before anything saves. Use our template sits below it: our columns, parsed instantly, free, no AI, and a sheet without a name and a price column is turned away with a pointer to the AI card. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-menu-import-reads-bigger-files-with-far-fewer-fa https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-menu-import-reads-bigger-files-with-far-fewer-fa Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard A menu PDF up to 25 MB and up to eight photos now upload; anything over 2 MB used to fail with an error. A second, stronger read re-judges only the rows the first one disputed, so correct prices stop being flagged, and a sheet with a veg column now marks the non-veg dishes too. A sheet too big to read is refused before it spends one of the store's AI imports, and deleting a draft mid-read stops the work. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-menu-rows-hold-every-portion-s-price-inside-the https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-menu-rows-hold-every-portion-s-price-inside-the Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard A dish with Full, Half, 4 Pieces and more shows every price in its own row instead of spilling over the rows above and below: two columns of portions on a wide screen, one on a narrow one. Only a stocked-out dish carries a badge now, beside its name, and the Live pill on every row is gone because the switch already says that. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-a-printer-set-up-with-detect-printers-prints-aga https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-a-printer-set-up-with-detect-printers-prints-aga Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing, Kitchen screen A printer that answers a status query with its own name (a real Epson, a TVS) used to break its own setup: every receipt, KOT and drawer kick failed before it was even queued, and nothing warned you. Sales recorded, kitchen silent, no bill. Settings → Printers & KDS also loses the Share printer diagnostics card. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-signing-out-lands-on-welcome-back-not-on-create https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-signing-out-lands-on-welcome-back-not-on-create Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard An owner who signed out used to be shown the signup panel again, in effect asked to create a second store, until the page was reloaded.

Before this a refunded owner kept the month for free and nothing recorded it; a partial refund is recorded against the payment. Paying again after a declined card in the same window now says the payment succeeded instead of failed. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-one-refund-promise-everywhere-our-mistakes-yes-c https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-16-one-refund-promise-everywhere-our-mistakes-yes-c Wed, 16 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT easykot.com, Owner dashboard The three free months are where you decide. A paid period, monthly or yearly, is yours from the day it starts and is not refunded; we refund our own mistakes, such as a duplicate charge, a charge after cancelling, or a fault we cannot fix. The 7-day change-of-mind refund is gone from the refund policy, the pricing page and the fine print under the pay button. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-register-0-1-7-discount-write-off-and-fssai-line https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-register-0-1-7-discount-write-off-and-fssai-line Tue, 15 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing Installed tills update themselves to this build. It carries the discount and written-off rows that make a bill add up, the FSSAI licence line under the address, and GST charged on the discounted price. A till goes from 0.1.4 straight to this one. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-gst-is-charged-on-the-discounted-price-not-the-f https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-gst-is-charged-on-the-discounted-price-not-the-f Tue, 15 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing, Captain app A discount comes off the food's taxable value and GST is charged on what is left, which is what the store actually owes (CGST Act s.15(3)(a)). The guest pays the same total: 10% off a ₹189 bill reads Discount ₹18.00 and GST ₹8.10 instead of ₹9.00, total ₹170.10 as before, and the bill reads Subtotal, Discount, Taxable value, CGST, SGST, TOTAL. Bills discounted before this build keep the tax they were issued with, and a discount can no longer take a part-paid check below what was already paid. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-captain-app-0-2-3-for-android https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-captain-app-0-2-3-for-android Tue, 15 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app Install it from Google Play if your phone is on the tester list, or download the same release from easykot.com/download.

A round that has left the phone but no counter has taken reads a calm Sending to kitchen, and Sent to kitchen now means a register has picked the ticket up. A waiter following the old warning would have had the kitchen cook a dish twice. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-a-table-settled-on-the-phone-prints-a-clean-firs https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-a-table-settled-on-the-phone-prints-a-clean-firs Tue, 15 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Printing, Captain app, Register Cash or UPI taken on the captain's phone now prints the paid receipt at the counter as the original, the same paper the register hands over at its own settle. Every one of those first bills used to come out stamped DUPLICATE, COPY 2, and counted as a reprint on the audit. A reprint is still something a person taps, and it still says so. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-a-discount-and-a-written-off-amount-now-print-on https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-15-a-discount-and-a-written-off-amount-now-print-on Tue, 15 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing A discount prints as its own row between the tax lines and TOTAL, so the rows add up to the total. A check settled short keeps the full TOTAL, prints what was paid, then Written off under it. The on-screen receipt shows the same rows as the paper, including Round off, which only the paper used to print, and reprints and the captain's bill carry them too. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-14-the-fssai-number-prints-on-every-bill https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-14-the-fssai-number-prints-on-every-bill Mon, 14 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard, Printing Type the 14 digits from your certificate under Invoice identity and they print under the address on every bill, GST or not, on reprints and on the captain's bills. The label follows the first digit, so nobody has to pick between Lic. No. and Reg. No., and a number that is not valid is never saved. Until it is saved the field says it will print, not that it does. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-captain-app-0-2-2-bluetooth-prints-one-copy-not https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-captain-app-0-2-2-bluetooth-prints-one-copy-not Sat, 12 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app, Printing A KOT, a bill or a test page sent from an Android phone over Bluetooth used to come out twice, and the job then sat under Printers saying it may or may not have printed. One copy now, and the job reports that it was sent. The same build gives the phone's back button a step back and shows on the Device tab the version you actually installed. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-android-s-back-button-goes-to-the-previous-scree https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-android-s-back-button-goes-to-the-previous-scree Sat, 12 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app Back, or the back swipe, now steps back one screen: an open order returns to the floor, the settle sheet returns to the order, a setup form returns to the step before it. A table you opened and left without adding anything stays free, with no empty order behind it. Screens with nothing behind them still close the app, as before. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-the-download-page-is-open-to-everyone-with-the-f https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-12-the-download-page-is-open-to-everyone-with-the-f Sat, 12 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT easykot.com easykot.com/download lists the current Windows .exe, Mac .dmg and captain .apk, always the newest release, with no access key.

The three-step enrol, pair and PIN sequence is gone, and the answer decides the rest of setup. A phone that runs the counter prints KOTs and bills itself, and setup now scans the QR instead of pasting 140 characters. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-09-a-cash-box-on-the-register-float-paid-outs-and-a https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-09-09-a-cash-box-on-the-register-float-paid-outs-and-a Wed, 09 Sep 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Start the shift with a float, write a paid-out as it happens (₹450, vegetables), then close the shift: you type the counted cash first, and only then does the register show expected, counted and the difference in words, balanced or short by ₹100. Cash sales stay hidden until you have counted.

A table whose bill is printed goes green and says BILLED, and drops back to seated the moment they order another round, because that paper is now wrong. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-14-every-row-in-orders-says-something-and-an-unpaid https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-14-every-row-in-orders-says-something-and-an-unpaid Fri, 14 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register A row now carries the table, what is on the check, what still needs doing, how long it has run and what it is worth, and search reaches a check by table, order number, amount or a dish on it. Open splits into Running now and From earlier days, so last week's service stops sitting on top of tonight's tables. A day close sheet bins the empty checks in one tap and writes off the never-paid ones behind a typed reason and a manager PIN, while a check that took money cannot be closed there at all. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-14-the-captain-app-is-one-product-a-floor-board-a-d https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-14-the-captain-app-is-one-product-a-floor-board-a-d Fri, 14 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app Every open tab is a card, oldest first, carrying what it owes, how long it has sat and whether a round is still waiting for the kitchen, with a coloured edge past 45 minutes. Free seats a party from free tables only, because two tabs on one table is how a party gets billed twice. Device explains which register the phone is linked to and how many rounds are held on it, and setting a phone up is now one question at a time instead of three forms on one screen. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-13-point-the-phone-s-camera-at-the-till-to-connect https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-13-point-the-phone-s-camera-at-the-till-to-connect Thu, 13 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Captain app The register's Multi-terminal screen leads with the address a phone can actually dial, this machine's own network address with the port, and shows a QR beside the code that carries both together. The old screen showed an address no phone could reach. Typing still works everywhere, for a denied camera, a cracked lens or a tablet without one. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-13-counts-on-the-captain-menu-and-a-search-bar-that https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-13-counts-on-the-captain-menu-and-a-search-bar-that Thu, 13 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app Every dish tile carries how many are already on this round, the same badge the register has always had, and on a Half and Full dish the portion keys show which portions those are. The badge counts only what has not gone to the kitchen yet. The menu's search bar and category chips are now one floating band the dish grid scrolls underneath, flat and opaque for anyone who turns Reduce Transparency on. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-new-owners-land-on-get-started-not-a-dashboard-o https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-new-owners-land-on-get-started-not-a-dashboard-o Wed, 12 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard One step is open at a time, in the shortest order to a printed bill: menu, then register, then first sale. A sample menu loads in one click, the setup code is minted on the screen with a Copy button, and the steps tick themselves when the till connects and when the first sale rings, with no refresh. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-drop-a-menu-as-a-pdf-photos-csv-or-excel-and-it https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-drop-a-menu-as-a-pdf-photos-csv-or-excel-and-it Wed, 12 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard A spreadsheet lands in the review grid at once. A PDF or up to eight photos is read, then independently re-checked dish by dish and price by price, with anything doubtful floated to the top with the reason beside it. Nothing saves until you press Import, a re-import never overwrites portions you built by hand, and there is a library of 245 Indian dishes to build from instead. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-choose-which-day-your-reporting-week-starts-on https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-12-choose-which-day-your-reporting-week-starts-on Wed, 12 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard Weeks were fixed to Monday. Pick a day in Settings and the card tells you what you get, for example weeks running Wednesday to Tuesday, and every This week and Last week preset on every report uses that boundary. No sale moves, only which week it is counted in. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-the-register-is-rebuilt-with-three-themes-and-pa https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-the-register-is-rebuilt-with-three-themes-and-pa Tue, 11 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Monochrome, Midnight and Warm Paper, a category sidebar, menu grid and cart you drag to the widths you want, and four density stops that carry type size and tile height for a laptop or a touch screen. The veg, non-veg and egg marks keep their legal colours in every theme, on a white plate when the surface is dark. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-half-and-full-are-portions-of-one-dish-not-two-d https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-half-and-full-are-portions-of-one-dish-not-two-d Tue, 11 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Owner dashboard, Printing A dish carries its portions with their own prices, and the portion rides the ticket line and the KOT as its own label beside the name, so the kitchen cannot cook the wrong size. Tapping a portion key on a dish that needs a spice level or an add-on now opens the chooser with that portion already picked, and a scanned or quick-added portioned dish can no longer ring at the base price with no portion at all. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-settle-handles-exact-short-over-and-part-payment https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-settle-handles-exact-short-over-and-part-payment Tue, 11 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register Type what the customer handed over and the register decides what happened: exact settles the check, short asks whether the gap is a discount or a loss, over shows the change due, and a part payment leaves the check open with the customer's name and phone recorded against it. The balance follows from the ledger, so nothing is typed twice. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-86-a-dish-from-the-till-and-the-tile-stays-on-th https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-86-a-dish-from-the-till-and-the-tile-stays-on-th Tue, 11 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register A searchable list with a switch per dish lets a cashier stock out a sold-out item without opening the dashboard, and it works with the internet down. The tile stays visible and disabled rather than vanishing, because what is on the menu and what you can sell tonight are different questions. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-draw-your-room-in-the-builder-then-seat-a-table https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-11-draw-your-room-in-the-builder-then-seat-a-table Tue, 11 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register A table now has a position, a size and a shape, so Settings has a plan you drag your dining room onto, floor by floor. The Floor tab draws that plan instead of a grid of orders, and tapping a free table seats a party on it. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-02-a-waiter-can-take-orders-on-a-phone-and-the-regi https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-02-a-waiter-can-take-orders-on-a-phone-and-the-regi Sun, 02 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Captain app, Register, Kitchen screen, Printing The captain app signs a waiter in on their own PIN, shows the floor and the menu, and puts a round on the kitchen printer or the kitchen screen over the shop Wi-Fi. A full order taken with the Wi-Fi off reconciles when the phone rejoins, with nothing lost, and a waiter and a cashier working the same table add up instead of overwriting each other. Every order event now names the person who made it. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-an-owner-dashboard-on-the-internet-with-the-whol https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-an-owner-dashboard-on-the-internet-with-the-whol Sat, 01 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard Sign in from any browser to add categories, dishes, modifiers and taxes, stock an item out, and import a menu from a spreadsheet. Changes reach every till on their own, and editing does not stop because a register is offline. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-reports-an-owner-reads-profit-and-loss-menu-engi https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-reports-an-owner-reads-profit-and-loss-menu-engi Sat, 01 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Owner dashboard The dashboard opens on net sales, orders, average check, food cost, labour, prime cost and operating profit, each against the last period and a target you set. Under it sit a full profit and loss, a dish by dish contribution report that sorts the stars from the slow movers, and expenses by category and vendor. The trading day starts when you say it does, so a 1am order counts to the night before. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-a-second-till-and-a-kitchen-screen-on-one-shop-n https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-a-second-till-and-a-kitchen-screen-on-one-shop-n Sat, 01 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Kitchen screen One register leads on the store's network and the others join it, so an order rung on one is on the other in near real time with the internet off, and both converge on the same numbers when it returns. Staff sign in on a PIN checked against the till's own database, so sign-in works with the cable out, and a chef's PIN opens the kitchen screen and nothing else. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-a-till-joins-a-store-with-a-one-time-code-and-it https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-08-01-a-till-joins-a-store-with-a-one-time-code-and-it Sat, 01 Aug 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register A register gets its own credential from a single-use setup code minted in the dashboard, and that credential can be revoked from there without touching the other tills. The till's own database is encrypted on the machine, so a copied file reads as noise rather than as your sales. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-12-search-the-menu-see-running-tables-and-ring-a-ta https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-12-search-the-menu-see-running-tables-and-ring-a-ta Fri, 12 Jun 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register The register gains a search bar over the local menu, a row of the dishes you ring most, and a Floor tab listing every open check with its table, total and how long it has been running. A takeaway needs no table. Alerts for a KOT sitting too long or a table dwelling too long can be switched on or off per store. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-09-thermal-printing-over-network-usb-serial-and-blu https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-09-thermal-printing-over-network-usb-serial-and-blu Tue, 09 Jun 2026 03:30:00 GMT Printing, Kitchen screen, Register A receipt prints with items, modifiers, the CGST and SGST split and the total, on 80mm and 58mm paper, and the cash drawer kicks on a cash settle. Detect printers sweeps the network, USB and the serial ports so one tap fills in the host, port or path, a failed print queues and retries instead of losing the sale, and a barcode scanner adds a scanned dish to the cart. Any tablet on the shop network can open the kitchen board from the register, see a round land in under a second and bump it when the food goes out. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-05-dark-mode-and-a-register-you-can-resize https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-05-dark-mode-and-a-register-you-can-resize Fri, 05 Jun 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register The categories, the menu grid and the cart are three panels you drag to the widths that suit your screen, and the app remembers them. A one-tap toggle switches light and dark, following the machine's own setting to begin with. Voiding a line records the void instead of erasing the line, so the history of the check stays readable. https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-04-the-first-register-ring-a-sale-and-settle-it-in https://easykot.com/changelog/#2026-06-04-the-first-register-ring-a-sale-and-settle-it-in Thu, 04 Jun 2026 03:30:00 GMT Register, Printing Browse the menu, add dishes with their modifiers, assign a table, send the round to the kitchen, settle by cash and see the receipt, with the network cable out the whole time. The check lives in the till's own database and syncs to the server when it reconnects.
