Overview Instructions Navigating to the Location Dashboard Exploring the sections of the Location Dashboard  Location/Your day at Dialing-in Recipe cards Tasks Telemetry Insights and Inventory Insights 

Overview 

This article introduces the features of the new Cafe Location Dashboard.  The Locations Dashboard is the new landing page for Baristas and Head Baristas. 

It replaced the Barista Onsights page, offering a clear view of: 

  • Your location
  • Active recipes at your location
  • Dial-ins
  • Tasks
  • Telemetry Insights and Inventory Insights 
     

💡Good to Know

Your entire operation, right in your pocket. You can access your Location and Operations data anytime, anywhere - perfectly optimized for your mobile phone.

 

Instructions 

Navigating to the Location Dashboard 

  1. Log in to the online platform C-sar.
  2. Navigate to Cafe on the main menu bar. 
  3. You will be directed to the Operations Fleet Dashboard. 
    If you are a Cafe Manager, switch to the Locations Dashboard. Baristas and Head Baristas can skip this step—this is your default landing page after logging in and selecting Cafe.

 


Exploring the sections of the Location Dashboard 


The Location Dashboard is organized into these five sections:

  1. Location/Your day at
  2. Dialing-in
  3. Recipe cards
  4. Tasks
  5. Telemetry and Inventory Insights 

 

Location/Your day at


In the Location section, you can: 

  • Select your active location: Use the dropdown menu to ensure you are viewing and/or managing the correct site. 
  • Toggle between sites: Use the dropdown menu to switch between different locations. 
  • Verify the site context: Use the dropdown to confirm your current workplace is selected, so that all logged brews and data are attributed to the right location. 


Dialing-in

You can select between the following two options:

  1. Log an Espresso (Dial-in manually): Perform a sensorial analysis and score a specific recipe and roast.
  2. Dialing in on a connected espresso machine
