Understand the tools
What these terms actually mean
- What is a Restaurant Management System (RMS)?
- A Restaurant Management System (RMS) — also called a restaurant POS or point-of-sale — is software that handles orders, billing, menu management and payments for a food-service business. A modern RMS like HimLocal goes beyond a cash register: it accepts QR-code table orders from guests' own phones, fires kitchen tickets to a Kitchen Display System (KDS), manages dine-in, takeaway and online orders from one screen, generates GST-compliant bills and settles payments to your own bank account. Unlike large food-delivery aggregator apps that take a high cut of every order and own the customer relationship, an RMS lets restaurants keep their margin and their customer data.
- What is a Kitchen Display System (KDS)?
- A Kitchen Display System (KDS) is a screen — typically a tablet or monitor — mounted in the kitchen that replaces paper kitchen order tickets (KOTs). When a waiter takes an order or a guest orders via QR code, the KDS shows the ticket instantly with item details, modifiers (e.g. “no onion”), special instructions and a timer. Colour-coded SLA alerts turn tickets amber then red as they age, so nothing is missed during a rush. The chef marks each ticket as cooking then ready, triggering the service staff. A KDS eliminates lost paper tickets, miscommunication and delays — and gives the owner real data on prep times and kitchen efficiency. HimLocal's KDS runs on any tablet and works fully offline.
