Step 1: Enable the feature within the "Check-in settings" module, located in the Locations module:

Show Check In Before Ready Mins - This is how many minutes before the order should be ready at that we will change the homepage screen on your mobile app.
Allow Check In Before Ready Mins - How many minutes before the order the customer will be able to check into a "spot"
Show Survey Link After Order Placed Mins - How many minutes after the order's status has changed to "Complete" (done from the CCP or the loyalty manager) that the customer will see the survey page

The templates that you will need to configure are:

Order delay warning - The notification sent to the restaurant when it's been longer than x minutes (configured in step 1) and the order has not been changed to "complete".

Order Ready for Pickup user notification - The notification sent to the customer when the status of the order is changed to "Ready for Pickup"

User check-in notification - The notification sent to the restaurant when the user checks in. NOTE: If you are using the Cloud PRNT - printers, it will print out a chit when the user check's in.
