02 — The daily operation
Running a bakery involves more than baking.
Orders arrive in one place, production is planned in another, and delivery notes and invoices follow their own path. The gaps create extra work.
- Standing orders changed by hand
- Production totals rebuilt from order sheets
- Delivery rounds managed separately
- Invoice details entered twice

Standing orders provide the base. Daily changes stay visible without starting again.

Xero integration

without re-entering the work.
Keep OvenDesk and Xero connected without re-entering customer and invoice data.
