Edit and Archive a KDS Profile

In the TechSuite portal, you can manage your KDS Profiles by editing existing profiles or archiving ones you no longer need. Archiving removes a profile from active use while keeping its record intact, useful for seasonal stations, retired lines, or testing layouts.

Edit a KDS Profile

You can update a KDS Profile’s name, connected categories (which items appear on this screen), table number display on cards, order processing method (update whole orders or individual items), layout, and All-Day View settings. This helps each kitchen station see exactly what it needs and move orders through clearly.

a. Open KDS Profiles

Go to Settings > Devices & Profiles > KDS Profiles.

b. Find the Profile

Find the KDS Profile you want to edit from the list.

c. Click the Edit Button

Hover over the row and click the Edit button .

Update KDS and Save Changes

Update the profile info (name), connected categories, table number display, order processing method, layout, and All-Day View preferences. Then click Save when you are done. Changes automatically apply to any device licence currently linked to this KDS Profile.

Archive a KDS Profile

Archiving removes a KDS Profile from active selection while keeping it stored for later use. This is ideal for retiring a station setup or pausing a seasonal flow without deleting it.

a. Open KDS Profiles

Go to Settings > Devices & Profiles > KDS Profiles.

b. Find the Profile

Choose the KDS Profile you want to remove from active use.

c. Click the Archive Button

Hover on the row and click the Archive button.

d. Confirm Your Archive

A confirmation popup will explain that this action is reversible and the profile will no longer be available for device assignment. Click Archive to confirm. The profile will no longer be selectable but remains stored for future restoration.

Restore an Archived KDS Profile

Restore a previously archived KDS Profile to make it active again.

a. Open Archives

Go to Settings > Archives.

b. Choose KDS Profiles

Select the KDS Profiles section.

c. Find the Profile

Search or browse to locate the KDS Profile you want to restore.

d. Restore

Click the Unarchive button . The profile returns to your active list with its settings intact.

What’s Next?

Assign this KDS Profile to a device under Settings > Devices & Profiles > Device Licences. If you use multiple stations, connect relevant categories to each profile so every screen shows the right items at the right place.
