You can assign each menu item definition to a maximum of 8 different SLUs in table view of the Menu Item Maintenance module. Assigning multiple SLUs to a menu item allows flexibility in building POS client pages that are customized to use dine in, take away, and carry out, and shows the menu items supported by the order type.
To assign another SLU to the menu item, select the SLU from the SLU 2 column. You can assign up to 8 SLUs per menu item. Duplicate SLUs do not appear on the same workstation page.
Use the SLU 2, SLU 3, and so on for multiple SLUs.
Use this field when Page Design Layout option, Use Sort Priority, is enabled from the Screen Lookup settings. When configured, menu items with Sort Priority 1 appear on the screen first, followed by menu items with Sort priority 2, and so on up to Sort Priority 99, and then finally Sort Priority 0 items.

The application uses the Visual State value to link menu item screen look ups with their corresponding Visual State buttons, which workstation operators use to change the menu items that appear in the Dynamic SLU.
For example, if you added five screen look up groups to the Dynamic SLU, insert five buttons.
