Dashprep tracks two things: orders and the line items inside them.

Line items vs. orders

  • A line item is a single product to make — “2× sourdough,” “1× birthday cake.” It’s the unit your team actually works on.
  • An order is the whole basket a customer placed. It’s done when all of its line items are done.

Statuses

Both orders and line items move between two states:
StatusMeaning
Open (pending)Still to be made.
CompleteFinished.
The board groups orders under Open and Complete tabs with live counts, so you always know how much is left.
1

Mark items done as you go

Tap a line item to complete it. The order shows its progress as items finish.
2

Complete the order

When the last item is done, complete the order. If you like, Dashprep can prompt you automatically once every item in an order is finished.
3

Changed your mind? Recall it

Marked something done too soon? Recall moves it back to open — individually or in bulk.

Everything is live

The board updates itself. When a new order comes in, or a teammate marks something done, every screen showing the board updates within seconds — no refreshing, no “is this the latest list?”
Because the board is shared and live, two people never work the same ticket by accident — when one marks an item done, it updates on everyone else’s screen right away.

Next: prep stations

Split the work across the floor so each station sees only what it owns.
