Synchronizing open ticket functionality with kitchen display systems

Abstract:

Techniques and arrangements for facilitating synchronization of open ticket functionality utilized by point-of-sale (POS) devices with kitchen display systems. In some example, a POS device associated with a merchant receives customer orders associated with transaction between the merchant and customer(s). The customer orders originate both from user input to the POS device and from an application(s) executing on a separate device. The POS sends the customer orders to a kitchen display system (KDS) associated with the merchant. The KDS aggregates the orders and, responsive to the aggregating, causes presentation of the orders.
