Introduction
------------

The PEI system is an electronic form of ordering system. It simplifies the needs of 
restaurants by making the ordering process straightforward, efficient, and productive. 
The PEI system is designed to be utilized by the restaurant staff.
Additionally, the PEI system allows the restaurant staff to calculate routine transactions 
and keep track of all transactions on a scheduled time-period basis.
