Abstract
In recent years, the digitization of administrative and operational processes has transformed various sectors in the world, including food service management. This research presents the development and implementation of a QR-based canteen management system, designed to enhance the efficiency of canteen operations by leveraging contemporary technological advancements. The system employs a desktop application built with C# and the .NET framework, enabling users to order and pay for food items using a QR code-based login and cashless payment system. This solution addresses the inefficiencies of traditional pen-and-paper-based canteen management by automating order processing, payment, and sales record maintenance. The primary objective is to streamline canteen operations, reduce service time, and improve customer satisfaction through a user-friendly and reliable system.
