Validate the Customer Ordering Experience
Use the following procedure to verify the complete customer ordering experience, from menu selection through payment and order confirmation.
- Open the published ordering site or scan an active QR code.
- Select Dine In for delivery to the table or *Pickup for collection at the counter.
- Browse menu categories, search for items, and use the available filters.
- Select a menu item, configure its options and quantity, and then add it to the cart.
- If combo meals are available, select the required combo options and add the combo to the cart.
- Review the cart, adjust quantities or remove items as needed, and then proceed to checkout.
- Enter the required customer information. For Dine In orders, provide the table or location identifier when prompted.
- Select a payment method, add a tip if applicable, and then place the order.
- Complete any additional payment authorization or authentication steps.
- Verify the payment result, order summary, and receipt download.
- Confirm that the order and payment details are recorded correctly in Simphony and the merchant’s payment reports.
The ordering widget includes a My Orders view that displays restaurant-specific order history stored on the customer’s device. Verify this functionality using the same device used to place the order.
My Orders does not provide a customer account or synchronize order history across multiple devices.
Test Operational Changes
Perform the following tests to verify that operational settings and changes work correctly in the customer ordering experience:
- Verify ordering availability before opening, during business hours, and after closing.
- Test each enabled payment method, including digital wallets on compatible devices.
- Test declined and interrupted payments, and verify that the appropriate messages appear to customers.
- Verify that special pricing is applied correctly when configured menu periods begin and end.
- Test Suspend and Activate, and confirm that the customer ordering experience reflects each change.
- Test alcohol availability and the per-order quantity limit separately.
- Disable alcohol ordering from the RVC Mappings page while it remains enabled in Customize Experience, and verify that the operational setting overrides the published configuration.
- Verify that saving payment and gift card settings does not affect the live ordering experience until the changes are published.
- Scan representative QR codes from each configured location range to verify that they open the correct ordering experience.
- After publishing changes, reopen the customer ordering site and verify that the updated settings are displayed correctly.
Use the test results to support customer acceptance. For each test, record the revenue center, test scenario, expected result, actual result, test date, and reviewer.
Resolve any identified issues before approving the configuration for production use.
