Hello @Kentconn 

 

This is a setting you can enable on the Square Point of Sale:

 

Settings -> Orders -> Alerts. Choose to enable alerts and then how long after your order arrives for when your tablet alerts you. I chose immediately.

 

If you have printers, I also highly recommend enabling printers:

Settings -> Orders -> Print Orders. Choose to automatically print incoming orders.

  (Please note that if you enable the auto print on multiple tablets you'll get multiple printouts of the same order!!)

 

**Edited to add: This is the setting configuration for the Point of Sale app versus the Restaurants app. There should be a way to have Restaurants alert you, but I'm not entirely sure of the steps needed to get the alerts enabled. They should be pretty similar to what I stated above though...

Hope this helps!
