Notifications

Notifications can be created in Kitchen iQ to perform two functions:

1. Send Pager notifications when items are ready

2. Create an on screen notification for the preparation and check of a table

 

To use paging notifications a separate companion application Message Hub must be setup and the appropriate paging hardware configured on site
