Genius for Restaurant training course

Genius for Restaurant training course

Seven recorded sessions that cover Genius for Restaurant end to end, in the order they make sense. Work through them in sequence for a new manager or a new build tech.

The course

  1. Session 1 — Product overview
    What the platform is, how the pieces fit, and the vocabulary the rest of the course uses.
  2. Session 2 — Admin Portal
    Navigating the back office: locations, staff, permissions, settings.
  3. Session 3 — Item creation
    Building items, sizes, modifiers and the menu structure they sit in.
  4. Session 4 — Kitchen display, kiosk and online ordering
    Where orders go after they are sent, and the ordering channels beyond the POS.
  5. Session 5 — Merchant app
    What the operator sees away from the restaurant.
  6. Session 6 — Start of day, end of day and reporting
    The daily cycle: opening, server banks, Daily Review, closing, and reading the reports.
  7. Session 7 — Printing and troubleshooting
    Printer templates, routing, backups, and diagnosing what is not printing.

How to use it

  • New restaurant manager. Sessions 1, 3 and 6 are the minimum. Add 4 if the site runs online ordering or a kiosk.
  • New build technician. All seven, in order, before touching a live account.
  • New support agent. Sessions 1, 2, 3 and 7. Session 7 is the one that pays for itself.
