1. Introduction

Kavapp Logistics is an application for logistics operators, designed to simplify and control logistics operations.

It minimizes the human factor, increases accuracy in managing product stock, and ensures timely execution of transfers.

What can you do in Kavapp Logistics?

  • Monitor product movement from the warehouse to points of sale.
  • Perform inventory intake.
  • Track stock in the warehouse.

With Kavapp Logistics, the logistics operator gains a clear view of all orders that need to be fulfilled, as well as product stock levels in both stores and the warehouse — helping to plan deliveries efficiently and avoid errors.

2. Getting started

2.1. Installing Kavapp Logistics

To get started, download the Kavapp Logistics app to your device. 

Where to download?

  • Google Play (Android)
  • App Store (iOS) 

After installation, launch the app and log in.

2.2. Logging into the Kavapp Logistics application

To access the logistics app and begin working, enter the logistics operator connection code. This code can be generated via: Kavapp Admin → Basic information → Logistics operators → Access code

Note: for one point of sale, it is possible for multiple employees to work simultaneously from different devices on which the Kavapp Logistics application is installed. A separate Access code must be generated for each added Logistician.

3. Main screen

The main screen of the Kavapp Logistics app gives the logistics operator access to key functions for control and task execution.

It includes the following core sections:

  • Orders — displays all orders received from points of sale and allows editing them.
  • Urgent orders — displays all urgent orders from points of sale.
  • Write-offs — enables quick product write-offs from any point of sale upon request
  • Active work shifts — shows which employees are currently present at their workplace; also allows creating cash collections or purchases.
  • Messenger — communication channel for logistics operators with other team members: sellers, administrators, and fellow logistics operators.

3.1. Orders

The Orders section on the main screen allows the logistics operator to view all orders placed from the point of sale.

The logistics operator can edit, process, and dispatch these orders for fulfillment. This section provides full control over the order processing workflow.

The “Write-off” section enables the Logistician to promptly write off products, dishes, ingredients, and consumables from any point of sale at the request of an employee. This function is used in cases where such items are damaged or are no longer suitable for further use.

This may be necessary in cases where a product is damaged or unsuitable for further use.

This tool is not needed if you activate the automatic write-off confirmation feature in:

Kavapp Admin → Basic information → Points of sale → Settings → Automatic write-off confirmation.

With auto-confirmation, no additional employee is required to process the write-off.

  • Movement of goods — generate tables with data on all product operations for a selected period.

5.1. Availability of goods

The “Availability of goods” section allows the logistics operator to view all products currently available at a specific point of sale in real time. This provides accurate control over stock at each location.

To view product availability:

  1. Go to the Points of sale screen in the Kavapp Logistics application.
  2. Select a specific point of sale from the list and tap the Availability of goods section.

The system will display the available products in the selected category. For each item, the number of units and their total value will be shown.

If the quantity of available units is marked with a “–” sign, it means the stock level has gone negative.

Common causes of errors:

  • The product was not received into stock on time or was not added at all to the point of sale, even though it was delivered and sold. This discrepancy will be shown during an inventory recount.
  • Errors in recipe card configuration.
  • Mistakes during purchasing or write-off.
  • The product was written off even though it was not physically in stock.

To avoid negative stock balances, it is recommended to regularly check product movement and verify the accuracy of system settings.

5.2. Inventory recount

The Inventory recount section helps the logistics operator control product movement in the store and easily adjust product quantities. This ensures data accuracy on available stock.

Note: From the start until the end of the recount, certain functions in the Kavapp Seller application will be disabled: purchases, write-offs, and orders. 

Sales are allowed during the recount at the point of sale, but receipts and product write-offs will not synchronize with Kavapp Admin in real time. The seller will see a notification that the receipt was not synchronized due to an active recount.

After completing the inventory recount: Go to the Receipts section → tap Synchronize

This will synchronize all receipts processed during the recount, and sold products will be deducted from the store’s stock. Their quantity will automatically be subtracted from the amount entered during the last recount.

To perform an inventory recount:

  1. Go to the Points of sale screen in the Kavapp Logistics application.
  2. Select the desired point of sale from the list and tap Inventory recount.
  3. Select the active categories to be included in the recount: dishes, ingredients, products, preparation batches (you can select all categories). Tap Select to proceed.

  5. When you finish updating quantities, tap Submit.

After the recount, the system will show the actual stock quantity for each item.

If any product shows a negative value, it means an error may have occurred. Common causes of errors are listed in section 5.1.

  2. Select the desired point of sale from the list and tap Movement of goods
  3. Choose your settings:

The “Settings” screen allows the logistics operator to configure the main parameters of the application. It includes the following sections:

  • database settings — add a new administrator account in Kavapp Admin with linked points of sale;
  • security — configure access security settings for the application.

6.1. Database settings

The “Database settings” section allows the logistics operator to add new administrator accounts or change the current account. One logistics operator can be granted access to multiple Kavapp account databases.

How to give a logistician access to an Admin Panel database:

  1. The administrator creates a logistics operator with a personal access code. This can be done in: Admin Panel → Basic information → Logisticians → Add logistician. 
  2. The logistician enters the received code in their Kavapp Logistics application.
  3. The logistician gains access to the Admin Panel database and can begin working with it.

6.2. Security

The “Security” section allows the logistics operator to configure security settings for accessing the application.

Here, you can enable or disable access codes and set up biometric login for additional data protection. This ensures a high level of security and protection of confidential information.
