Configuring Menu Items for Conversational Ordering

1. Select the Enterprise, property, revenue center, or zone, click Configuration, and then click Menu Item Maintenance.
2. Insert a menu item master record for each menu item (including condiments) that can be ordered using conversational ordering. You need to account for all potential ordering combinations a guest might use. Use braces {} to surround the generic variables such as {SIZE} and {TEMP}.

   In the coffee shop example shown in the following figure, you might have records for {SIZE} {TEMP} Drink, {SIZE} Hot Drink, and so on.
