In this guide we’ll look at how Teachers can use the Teacher App to book and pay for Dinners.
The Teacher App is designed to help Teachers complete their day to day tasks, on the go, quickly and easily and is free to download from the App Store for iPhones or Google Play Store for other devices.
Pre-requisites: In order for Staff to be able to use the Teacher App to book and pay for Dinners, you will need to have turned on Allow Staff Members to Use Bromcom Dinner Money within Config > Dinners Configuration and have a Menu with a Staff Meal Definition attached. For more information on how to do this please see How to Manage Staff Dinners.

You can click on the i icon next to the meal options to see more information.
