Setting Up Office Group Ordering

Setting Up Office Group Ordering

Welcome to Tacoter! We understand that feeding your team can be a delicious, but sometimes complex, task. Our office group ordering feature is designed to make it simple, efficient, and stress-free for office managers. This guide will walk you through setting up your office account and creating your first group order, ensuring everyone gets exactly what they crave.

Getting Started: Setting Up Your Office Account

If you're an office manager new to Tacoter, or if you already use Tacoter for personal orders and want to add an office profile, this section is for you.

1. Access the Office Portal

Go to our dedicated office portal: tacoter.com/office.

2. Sign In or Create an Account

• Existing User: If you already have a personal Tacoter account, sign in using your credentials at tacoter.com/office/login. You can use your personal account to manage both personal and office orders.
• New User: If you're new to Tacoter, you'll be prompted to create an account. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your login.

3. Complete Office Onboarding

After signing in, you'll be guided through a quick onboarding process to set up your office profile. This is essential for your group orders.

1. Enter Office Name: Provide the official name of your office or company.
2. Add Delivery Address: Input your primary office delivery address. This will be the default for your orders.
3. Set Default Budgets (Optional): You can set default per-person budget limits. This helps ensure orders stay within company guidelines.

Once these steps are complete, your office account is ready! You can always update your office details later by visiting Settings at tacoter.com/office/settings.

Creating Your First Group Order

Now for the fun part – feeding your team! Our streamlined process lets you set up a group order in just five steps.

1. Start a New Group Order

From your office dashboard, click on Create Group Order or navigate directly to tacoter.com/office/orders/new.

2. Pick a Restaurant

Browse through the available restaurants in your area. You can filter by cuisine, dietary needs, or popularity. Select the restaurant you'd like your team to order from.

3. Set Delivery Details

This is where you define when the food will arrive and when your team needs to finalize their choices.

1. Set Delivery Time: Choose the exact date and time you want the food to be delivered to your office.
2. Set Order Deadline: This is crucial! Select a deadline by which all team members must submit their orders. Important: The order deadline must always be before the delivery time you've chosen. This gives the restaurant enough time to prepare everything.

4. Confirm Delivery Address

The system will pre-fill your default office delivery address. Double-check that it's correct. If you're ordering to a different location for this specific order (e.g., a special event venue), you can update it here.

5. Invite Your Team & Set Budget

This is where you involve your colleagues!

1. Invite Team Members: Enter the email addresses of the people you want to invite to this group order. Each person will receive a unique, private link to place their order. They do not need to create a Tacoter account to order!
2. Set Budget (Optional): You can set a specific per-person budget for this order, overriding your default settings if needed. This helps manage costs effectively.

6. Launch the Order!

Review all the details one last time. When you're satisfied, click Launch Group Order. Your team members will receive their invitation emails, and you can monitor their orders from your office dashboard at tacoter.com/dashboard.

That's it! You've successfully set up an office group order. Enjoy the convenience and happy team members!
