Configuring Order Types

  2. In the Text field, enter an order type for each record (for example, Dine In, Take Out, Drive Thru).
  3. Click Save.
  4. Select the Enterprise, property, revenue center, or zone, click Setup and Order Type Parameters.
  5. For each order type record, select the appropriate options as described in the following table:

    Table 6-5 Order Type Options

    Option Description

    1 - Print on Customer Receipt and Guest Check

    Select this option to print the order type name on customer receipts and guest checks.

    2 - Print on Order Printer

    Select this option to print the order type name on order printers.

    4 - Do Not Post Transactions to Tip Report Totals

    Select this option if you do not want sales for the order type to appear on Tip Report Totals.

    5 - Perform Auto Combo Recognition

    Select this option to have workstations automatically perform auto combo recognition when the workstation operator changes the workstation to the order type.

    6 - Transaction Cancel Default

    Select this option when starting orders without an order type.

    If a workstation operator begins a transaction and cancels it before selecting an order type, Ops requires the workstation operator to associate the check with an order type for posting purposes. Ops finds the first order type that has this option selected and uses it. When you deselect this option, Ops uses the first order type record in the list to associate with the check.
