The Critical Importance of Details – Banquet Event Orders

A Banquet Event Order, commonly referred to as a “BEO,” is the most important document used on-site during an event. It is your program itinerary; the form that enumerates all the elements of the event in intricate detail. Your BEO should include everything you need the facility to know about a particular function like the room name, date and time, number of guests, menu to be served with pricing, equipment to be brought on-site and any special requests you may have.

With Better Cater, creating and generating your BEO is a walk in the park. Let me show you how you can have your own professional-looking BEO.

  1. Go to the Events section from the navigation bar.

  2. Click on the event you would want to generate a BEO on.

  3. Click on View Reports.
