The Ram App

Application Definition Statement

Purpose:

The Ram iPhone and iPad app focuses on the satisfaction of our guests. We created this in order to provide immediate access to our menu, ordering food, and allowing them to view our waiting list prior to their arrival. This app is designed for people who love to get in and get out, who are in a hurry, or enjoy ordering before they arrive.

• Register or Login – go to locations
• - When the app opens, there will be a loading screen showing the Ram logo. Next there will be a screen that asks the user to login, whether they want to login using facebook, or create their own account through the Ram application. These accounts will store their information, from their name to their credit card number (for easy access in the future)
• - Once they login there will be a window that will ask for their current location, which will locate the closest Ram restaurant in their area on google maps.
• Viewing the menu
• - The menu will differ between each location, and will have pricing and an option to view the happy hour menu. 
• Finding a table for dine in – check waiting list
• - The option for finding a table will show the current waiting list, whether there is one or not. If there is no waiting list, there will be an image that will show the tables that are currently available, and how many.
• Placing an order
• - Placing an order will be included in the menu button. While they are viewing the menu they have access to click each item, add a quantity number, and that will be added to their order. Each item they click will be represented by a check mark which indicates that is the item they have chosen.
• Payment
• - The payment window will have a summary of their chosen items, they will have an option to confirm their order, or go back and add/subtract items. This window will show them their total, with tax added, with an option to add a tip. After they confirm their order they will be brought to a screen that will allow them to enter their credit card number. Once their order is completed they will be shown their receipt, with the option to print/email (if necessary).
