Product timers

Product Timers are a tool in the Andy App designed to ensure proper food management, guaranteeing compliance with food safety and efficiency in handling. By using digital labels and colors, the status of each product is tracked from the moment it is opened until its final state.

To generate a product timer, click on Create in the top right corner, and select the corresponding product:

After clicking and entering the quantity and batch (if required), Andy manages this tracking using alert colors, allowing quick identification of the status:

  • Green: Product ready to use

  • Yellow: Warning that the product is close to expiring

  • Red: Expired product, must be discarded

  • Blue: Product not ready to use (in the process of defrosting or tempering)

Product Categories

At the top, you can search for or view products according to the categories they were assigned, making product organization and management easier.



Product Statuses



Each product contains statuses assigned in its configuration. In this example, the following statuses are displayed:

  • Opening: The start of tracking.

  • Display Case: The product is on display for sale or self-service, ready for customer consumption.

  • Gastro Table: The product is available for immediate use.

  • Discard: Expired product that must be disposed of.
