Remarks on the Program Function

By use of this program you can maintain the basic data of the menu items in the system, i.e., insert new records, edit and delete the existing ones. You can also display the data on the screen for enquiry only.

Menus are used to collate several items which are also recorded when an individual item is sold (the so-called menu carrier). This can be used for articles which are sold as a set or for articles which are offered in hospitality outlets, e.g. as menu of the day, couverts, etc. Menus are linked in program Item -> Linkage -> Menu to the sales article.

You can set up various types of menus.

• Selection Menu:
  This menu consists of more than one course. Each course consists of more than one menu item. During posting, after each course, the items of the next course are displayed and can be selected. Based on the course group assigned to the menu, the number of menu items to be selected pro course is determined.
• Free Choice:
  This menu consists of only one course assigned with more than one menu items. All the items are assigned to the course. Based on the course group assigned to the menu, the number of menu items to be selected pro course is determined.
• Autom.Menu:
  This menu consists of more than one course, each of them assigned with only one menu item. Therefore during posting of this type of menu, there is no necessity to choose the items and the items will be posted automatically.

Remarks on the Input Fields

This paragraph will provide a short overview over the options available for updating these Basic Data.

Just like in almost any other program:

• The Input Mask may be different in your MICROS Retail OSCAR POS program depending on the set-up of the application. In some cases some Data Fields may be missing.
• Some input fields may contain default values or defined selection options; these cannot be updated.
• The input mask contains some fields that require an entry and others in which entries are optional.
• If the data record is updated via multi-page input masks, go to the Dialog Window by clicking on the appropriate buttons with <Mouse key 1>.
• The same procedure applies to call up another update program from this program.
• In some cases you may find that so-called "Switches" which - depending on the default - can be activated or deactivated with <Mouse key 1>. Activated switches are identified by their dark color, deactivated switches are lighter-colored.
