Configuring Barcoded Menu Items

1. Select the Enterprise, property or revenue center and click Configuration, and then click Barcodes.
2. Insert a barcode record.
3. In the Barcode column, enter the numeric value which the barcode represents.
4. Click the ellipsis point (...) button in the Master column, select the master menu item to be ordered when the barcode is entered, and then click OK.
5. In the Definition column, select the Menu Item Definition (belonging to the selected Menu Item Master) to be ordered when the barcode is entered. If you select 0 - All Definitions, the workstation determines which definition to order at the time the barcode is entered, based on the active Menu Levels and other criteria.

   This column is only active when you set the Menu Item Master column to a value other than 0 - None.

6. In the Price # column, select the Menu Item Price (belonging to the selected Menu Item Definition) to be ordered when the barcode is entered. If you select 0 - All Prices, the workstation determines which price to order at the time the barcode is entered, based on the active Menu Levels and other criteria.

   This column is only active when you set the Menu Item Definition column to a value other than 0 - All Definitions.

7. In the Alternate Price column, enter the price to charge for the item when the barcode is entered.

   This value is used only when you set a value greater than 0.00; if the value is 0.00, the price from the Menu Item Price record is used.

8. In the Alternate Prep Cost column, enter the prep cost to use for the item when it is ordered by the barcode.

   This value is used only when you set a value greater than 0.00; if the value is 0.00, the prep cost from the Menu Item Price record is used.

9. Click Save.

   Note:

   From the workstation, using the Barcode Entry function, privileged staff can create, assign, and update barcoded menu items. See Creating, Editing, and Assigning Barcodes to Menu Items for more information.
