Print Groups

Print groups are user-defined values used to sort menu items. Print groups control sorting on various types of print jobs including order chits, guest checks, and customer receipts. However, it is most commonly used for order device output. You can use print groups to:

• Sort by preparation time (items that take longer are sorted first)

• Sort by meal course (appetizers before entrees)

• Sort specific condiments last

• Change the print group of parent menu items

Print groups are configured for a menu item class; new menu item class records are created with a default value of 1.
