Starting an order Once you are logged in to On.Care and in the home screen, click “Start new order.”
2. Choose your order guide
You will be directed to fill out the following fields;
Based on your user rights, you will have different options you can choose from. In this example, we will be placing an order on behalf of a Food Service Director. However, if you are from a different department (i.e. housekeeping, maintenance, central supply…etc) the drop downs will show only what pertains to you when you create an order. Once your fields are filled out correctly, go ahead, and press “Create Order.”
3. Adding items to your order
Once you create your order you will be directed to your order guide which is a catalog compiled of products you can order in this department. Use the down arrow to drill down to the products in each category as shown for “bakery” below.
You can use the drag bar at the bottom of your screen to scroll to the right for more product info, like your package type and units. Use your keyboard to key in your desired quantity.
4. Submit your order
To send your order for approval, simply click the send button on the bottom right corner of your screen.
5. Review your order
On.Care will then take you to an order summary which will show you the PO to each vendor and your total cost for the order.
This is a great time to review your order and check the quantities to be sure there are no issues.
If all looks good, you can go ahead and press “continue.” This sends your order to the next approver, not directly to the vendor.
You will get an email of the PO for your records, it will look something like this.
