Configuring Menu Level Sets for Conversational Ordering

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, revenue center, or zone, click Configuration, and then click Menu Level Sets.
  2. Insert a new Menu Level Set.

    In the coffee shop example, you could create Size and Temperature Menu Level Sets.

  3. Select the Default Master Group for each Menu Level Set.

    In the coffee shop example, you could select Drinks as the Default Master Group.

  4. Double-click a Menu Level Set to open it in form view.
  5. From the General section, select 2 - Bound to parent to bind the Menu Item Master Group (for example, Drinks) to the custom Menu Levels (for example, Size and Temperature).

    When a guest initially orders a drink by either Size or Temperature, those menu items link to the Menu Item Master Group, which also link to Anonymous Menu Level Entry Options. This allows the workstation operator to add items in the exact order that the guest states or orders them.

  6. From the Menu Level Entries section, click Add.
  7. Enter menu level names for the Menu Level Set (for example, you could add Small, Medium, and Large Menu Level Entries to the Size Menu Level Set).
  8. For each Menu Level Entry, select the Default and Anonymous options.

    Selecting these options allows the menu level sets to serve as temporary $0.00 placeholders for menu items when guests order them out of sequence.

  9. Click Save.
