Configure Condiment Menu Item Class

The following instructions help you configure a condiment menu item class. Condiment classes define the Condiment Group membership of menu items to which their class is assigned. When a menu item requiring a condiment is selected in a transaction, the menu items belonging to that Condiment Group appear.

It is helpful to use a naming convention that allows users to distinguish between types of menu item classes and to identify their purpose: what Condiment Groups they Require, Allow, or are a Member of; what order devices they output to, and so on. You could use a shorthand letter at the beginning of the Regular and Required and Condiment or Member classes:

• An upper case “R” for the classes requiring a condiment (priced menu items)

• A lower case “m” for classes that are members of Condiment Groups

1. Select the Enterprise, property, or revenue center, click Configuration, and then click Menu Item Classes.
2. Click the Insert icon () on the toolbar.
3. In the Insert Record dialog, enter the Record Name for the condiment menu item class, and then click OK.

   An example is m-meat temp.

4. Double-click the new menu item class record.
5. On the General tab, click the Print Class drop-down list and select the print class to apply to all menu items that receive this class.
6. Click the Options tab, and select the following options:

   • 2 - ON = Condiment Menu Items; OFF = Regular Menu Items

   • 8 - Allow Menu Items in this Class to be Non-Priced

   See Configure Menu Item Class for a description of all other options.

7. Click the Condiment Groups tab.
   1. In the Member Condiment Groups column, select the condiment groups to assign for this condiment menu item class and its menu items.
