Café QR features · Inspection

Read-only inspection mode and 14-allergen compliance for EHO visits

When an EHO visits, hand them a tablet with Inspection mode open. No searching through lever-arch files or missing log sheets. In one clean screen, inspectors see 90 days of signed diaries, temperature logs, corrective action audit trails, and your live Natasha's Law allergen matrix.

01

Hand the inspector one screen, not a binder

Inspection mode locks the dashboard into a read-only audit view. Environmental Health Officers can independently review daily diaries, opening checks, temperature charts, and breach resolution notes without accessing private business data or order finances.

Filter by 30, 60 or 90 days with a single click. A dedicated Print / Save as PDF button generates a clean, printable due diligence audit pack formatted specifically for council records.

  • ✓Read-only inspector dashboard preventing accidental modifications
  • ✓Complete audit trail of all temperatures and corrective actions
  • ✓Summary statistics showing total checks, breaches resolved and diary sign-offs
  • ✓Clean print-ready CSS export with no bulky PDF libraries required

  • HACCP temperature logs & SFBB diary →
02

Natasha's Law 14-allergen compliance matrix

UK law requires commercial food businesses to declare any of the 14 major allergens present in their dishes. Inspection mode dynamically generates a live matrix of all active menu items mapped against all 14 statutory allergens.

Because the matrix is derived directly from your live digital menu, changes made by kitchen staff during prep instantly update the inspection view without requiring manual spreadsheet updates.

03

Plans and honest limits

Inspection mode is included with the Food Safety & Compliance pack, available across the POS plan (£39/month) and Multi-site plan (£59/month), or as a £6/month add-on.

Inspection records are retained for a rolling 90-day window. Printing utilizes standard browser print and PDF drivers.

Questions

Straight answers, before you start.

Visit the help centre →Ask us on WhatsApp
Can an inspector accidentally change or delete our data?+

No. Inspection mode is strictly read-only. It exposes no edit controls, action buttons or financial settings, so you can safely hand a tablet to an officer.

How does the Natasha's Law allergen matrix work?+

It reads the declared allergen tags from every active dish on your menu and tabulates them across the 14 EU regulated allergens (celery, gluten, crustaceans, eggs, fish, lupin, milk, molluscs, mustard, nuts, peanuts, sesame, soya, and sulphites).

Can I export or print the inspection report?+

Yes. Tap 'Print / Save as PDF' at the top of the report to open your browser's native print dialogue and generate a clean paper copy or PDF file for council archives.

How many days of history does the report include?+

The report defaults to the last 90 days of records, and can be filtered to 30 or 60 days using the duration toggle.
