Creating Combo Meals

Simphony offers various ways to create combo meals and to modify the menu items that compose the meal. The instructions assume that the workstation is not configured to recognize and create combo meals automatically while you add items to the check.

  1. If you want to know the types of combo meals you can create using the items on a check:
    1. Click the Auto Combo function key.
    2. To create one combo meal, click OK to confirm the combo meal.
    3. To create multiple combo meals, select a combo meal from the Combo Meal dialog box and click OK.
    4. If the combo meal requires additional side items to complete the meal, add the remaining side items and end the current service round.
  2. If you want to create a combo meal when a primary menu item and a side item that make up a combo meal are on a check:
    1. Select the primary menu item of the combo meal, and click the Combo function key.
