The cooking schedule function can be used to plan the quantity of key items to cook throughout the day. This feature is especially helpful for items that require a longer cooking time by letting you prepare these items in advance. The system looks at your sales for such items on the same day a week ago, and assumes that you will sell approximately the same number of items at approximately the same time that day. The system also takes into account the number of these items actually sold today, so it does not have you pre-cook too many of them. Prior to using the cooking schedule, you have to set it up in View \ Options \ Cooking Schedule branch. This function does not do any inventory posting. It only helps you schedule your work.
