Restaurant Management Workflows

Here are 5 restaurant management workflows:

1. Send Reminder Email When Work Order is Due Between Specific Dates

In industries like restaurants, managers and employees often work on weekly or monthly schedules. With these schedules in mind, DreamzCMMS admins can set up workflows to automatically notify the appropriate manager when a work order's due date falls within their shift. This automation saves admin the effort of sending manual reminders, ensuring that work orders are addressed promptly and efficiently.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Work Order Due Date is between specific dates > THEN Send a Work Order Reminder Email

2. Assign User When Request is Submitted During Specific Hours

Restaurant managers aren’t on duty 24/7, and they shouldn't need to be. This workflow allows managers to automatically assign requests submitted during their off-shift hours to an assistant manager or designated point person. By enabling this workflow, managers can rest easy knowing that requests will be handled promptly, even when they’re off the clock, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Workflow:
IF a Request is created > AND the Request creation time is between specific hours > THEN Assign the Request to a designated User

3. Automatically Assign Team When Category is Assigned to Work Order

In restaurants, employees have distinct responsibilities, such as hosts, waiters, and cooks. With DreamzCMMS, admins can create teams based on these roles and use this workflow to ensure that each team is notified when a work order relevant to their duties is submitted. When a work order is categorized, the appropriate team is assigned in real-time, allowing them to take immediate action.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Category is "Damaged" > THEN Assign the Team to the Work Order

4. Automatically Assign Category to High-Priority Work Orders

Data integrity is crucial for DreamzCMMS admins to effectively utilize reporting and gain a comprehensive understanding of issues occurring within their facilities. This workflow ensures that all high-priority work orders are accurately categorized, reducing the risk of errors in classification and enhancing the reliability of your data.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Priority is High > THEN Assign the appropriate Category to the Work Order

5. Automate High-Priority Requests

Restaurant managers can streamline their approval process using this DreamzCMMS workflow, eliminating the need for manual approval of critical requests. When a request is marked as high priority, it is automatically approved, ensuring it is handled without delay. This saves managers time and ensures that urgent requests are prioritized efficiently.

Workflow:
IF a Request is created > AND the Priority is High > THEN Create work order
