The Take Order sample demonstrates how you can build a customized user experience for servers at restaurants, using Power Apps powered by Business Central.
The app allows servers to seat guests at a table and provides an intuitive UI for easily taking their orders. The sample includes a Business Central extension, a Power App, and a Power Automate flow. The extension adds the appropriate APIs and extends the items and customer tables with the following fields:
-
Items
- SoldInRestaurant: Indicates if the item should appear in the app
- LongItemDescription and AllergenInformation: Optional fields that the app can utilize
-
Customers
- IsTable: Indicates that the customer should appear as a table within the app
The extension also includes a sample data page called Take Order sample data, which contains an action to generate sample items and tables for the app to use.
Note: The sample data generator has only been tested with US versions of Business Central. Adjustments may be necessary for other locales.
Follow the steps in the Try our sample apps guide to try the sample with your own tenant.
