Setting Up Menu Item Definitions

  1. Access the Menu Item Maintenance Module:
    • If you are using Simphony First Edition, select the revenue center and then click Menu Item Maintenance.

    • If you are using Simphony, select the revenue center, click Configuration, and then click Menu Item Maintenance.

  2. Click the Record Type drop-down list, select Menu Item Definition, and then click Search.
  3. Ensure that the menu items have a single definition.

    Menu items that are used in Suites cannot have more than one definition. Suites only recognizes the first definition for a menu item.

  4. Ensure that the menu items have a Number Look Up (NLU) assigned.

    Suites cannot recognize NLUs that exceed ten digits. You can leave the NLU Group empty, but the NLU number is necessary to import items into the Suites Management database. This allows operators to place orders by NLU.
