Configure Major Group

Major groups are used to categorize menu item sales. You can use them when running the Major Group Sales Report on the workstation. Each major group also has a report group number associated with it. The report group numbers are used to view subtotals of major groups on reports. By using report groups, users can see sale subtotals.

  1. Select the Enterprise or property, click Configuration, and then click Major Groups.
  2. Click the Insert icon (This image shows the Insert icon.) on the toolbar.
  3. In the Insert Record dialog, enter the Record Name for the major group (for example, Food), and then click OK.
  4. Enter a number other than 0 (zero) in the Report Group field.

    For example, you can enter 1 for the Food major group and enter 2 for the Alcohol major group. When you enter 0 (zero), the menu item does not appear on reports.

  5. Click Save.
