BIZ Cafe is used through three places: a Desk workspace for managers and administrators, a guest storefront for customers, and a staff console for the team working the floor. This page shows you where each lives and what you can do there.

​
The Desk Workspace

The BIZ Cafe workspace is your back-office home. Open it from the Bizaxl Desk at /app/biz-cafe. It gives administrators a single place to manage the café and review performance.

From the workspace you can reach: The workspace also shows the Order Journey pipeline, a visual progression of an order from Order Placed to Invoice to Feedback. See The Order Journey for the full lifecycle.
The Desk workspace and the reports are available to the Cafe Admin role. Cashiers and kitchen staff work from the web apps described below.

​
The Guest Storefront

The storefront at /cafe is the customer-facing ordering app. Guests reach it by scanning the QR code at their table, and they never need to log in.

The Staff Console

The staff console at /cafe-ops is where the team works. It requires a login, and each page is limited to the roles that need it.

Who Reaches What

​
How This Fits with Bizaxl and BAS

BIZ Cafe runs on the Bizaxl platform and uses the BAS base application underneath. The accounting, tax, and stock records that café sales feed into are standard Bizaxl and BAS records. If you want to understand the underlying ledger, tax setup, or inventory mechanics, see the shared Bizaxl and BAS docs. The café pages here focus on what is specific to running a café.

​
Best Practices

  • Bookmark the page you live in. Cashiers should bookmark /cafe-ops/counter; the kitchen should bookmark /cafe-ops/kitchen.
  • Print fresh QR codes when the menu route changes. The QR code points guests to the storefront, so keep it current.
  • Use the workspace for review, not billing. Day-to-day billing happens at the counter; the workspace is for setup and reporting.
