Post Menu Items
Introduction
Allowed Condiments
If a menu item has allowed (or optional) condiments, no
condiment choices display when you post the menu item.
Instead, you must access the allowed condiments group(s) using
the touchscreen SLU or NLU keys. Only the condiment groups
that are linked this menu item are available.
Menu items may have more than one allowed condiment link.
Allowed condiments can be selected in any order.
Priced Condiments
Condiments can be priced just like regular menu items. For
example, extra cheese on sandwiches might be 50 cents. As with
regular menu items, condiments can have preset or open prices.
Zero-priced Condiments
A condiment can be programmed to be zero-priced. This is used
for condiments that you do not want to price or track, like
[Medium Rare], or [No Mayo]. After the condiment’s price is set
to $0.00, the price can then be programmed not to post to the
check detail or report totals, and it may or may not print.
Condiments that Override Parent Print Group
Print groups determine which menu items print together at
remote order devices, and when they print. A condiment can be
assigned to a print group and then be used to change the print
group of the menu item it follows.
For example, let’s say appetizers are programmed to print first
(Print Group 1) and entrees are programmed to print second
(Print Group 2). The condiment [As Entree] is linked to the
Entree print group. Selecting [As Entree] after posting an
appetizer forces the appetizer to print with entrees instead of at
the top of the order chit with other appetizers.
Matching Condiment Quantity
A menu item can be programmed to match condiment quantity
to number of items ordered. When you order two or more of the
same item, the system prompts you to select a condiment for
each item. If the item requires two or more condiments, you
must select the first condiment for each item ordered before
moving on to the second condiment.
For example, assume that Steak is a menu item which includes
2 required condiments, a vegetable and a starch. If you have
orders for three Steaks, you must first select a vegetable for each
Steak, then select a starch for each Steak.
