Assigning Condiments to Parent Menu Item Classes

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, revenue center, or zone, click Configuration, and then click Menu Item Classes.
  2. Double-click a parent menu item class.
  3. Click the Condiment Groups tab, and then select the appropriate Required Condiment Groups and Allowed Condiment Groups for the class.

    For example, if the parent menu item class is Ham Sandwich Class, the required and allowed condiment groups are listed in the following table:

    Table 28-2 Examples of Required and Allowed Condiment Groups

    Condiment Group Examples

    Required Condiment

    Meat Group, Bread Group

    Required condiments are sometimes referred to as forced condiments. Each Required Condiment Group that you select appears on the Forced Condiments tab. From there you can enter the Minimum and Maximum amounts for each item.

    Allowed Condiment

    Meat Group, Bread Group, Cheese Group, Sauce Group, and Veggie Group

  4. (Optional) Click the Forced Condiments tab.
  5. For each required condiment group, enter the Minimum and Maximum condiment count required to complete the order.

    For example, if you set the minimum condiment count for Meat Group as 2, the workstation operator must add two meat types to complete the order.

  6. To limit the number of selections that workstation operators can add from a condiment group at a certain menu level, enter the Threshold 1 and Threshold 2 for each required condiment group.

    Typically, the menu level controls how much the application charges for a condiment. The threshold values allow you to determine when the price of a condiment changes, based on the number of items selected.

  7. Click the Options tab, and then select the appropriate options as described in the following table:
