Frequently asked

The practical details.

OvenDesk is being prepared for public launch. Here’s what it is designed to cover.

What is OvenDesk?

OvenDesk is cloud-based bakery operations software. It brings together customers, orders, production, deliveries, stock, invoices, credit notes and reporting.

Who is it for?

OvenDesk is designed for bakeries managing repeat customers, production and delivery rounds, and for the people working across those daily operations.

How do I get access?

OvenDesk does not offer self-service sign-up yet. Register your interest and we’ll get in touch to talk through your bakery and whether OvenDesk is a good fit.

Is there an app for drivers?

Yes. The Driver App runs in the phone’s browser. Drivers see their route and stops, delivery instructions, products and quantities, and record each stop as Delivered, Partial or Failed, with notes and an optional photo.

Is there a till for the shop counter?

Yes. OvenDesk POS runs on the counter terminal with its own product catalogue and photographs, favourites, search, cash and card checkout, clerk switching, parked sales, discounts and price adjustments, shifts and cash movements, and a cash-up counted by denomination. Card payments are taken on a standalone card terminal. Till sales come back into OvenDesk for POS reporting and End of Day.

Does it work with Xero?

Yes. Customers can sync to Xero, and invoices and credit notes can be sent as drafts. VAT and account mapping are supported. Payment sync, payment reconciliation and credit-note allocation are not included.

Can multiple staff use it?

Yes. OvenDesk supports multiple users with organisation-based access, so staff can work within their bakery’s operation.

Can I bring my existing customer and product data?

Onboarding and import options can be discussed before you move. Tell us about your current data when you register your interest.
