Events & BEOs
Track large parties from inquiry to final check: event details, guest count, room, menu, timeline, deposits and status. Revisions are kept, and the BEO prints cleanly for the kitchen and floor.
Included in every plan.
- Event coordinators
- General managers
- Chefs planning prep
Event details live in email threads, and the kitchen works from an outdated version.
One current BEO everyone can read, with deposits and changes on the record.

Events in the next 14 days are part of the AI context
A rehearsal dinner grows from 40 to 52 guests two days out. The coordinator updates the BEO; the chef sees the new count and the revision note before ordering.
Illustrative only—not a customer result.
Questions
Can I take event payments in 86’d?
No. 86’d records deposits you’ve taken; payment processing stays with your POS or payment provider.
