Default Settings for when Taking an Instant Order
Certain settings can be set by default when the Touch app user is taking an order for a resident/patient on the Instant Ordering screen. These default settings are set in the Touch Admin software. To do so, complete the following steps:
- In Touch Admin, select Report Presets. The Report Presets screen appears.
- Scroll to the IO section.
- Select or deselect the default settings as needed:
- Suppress Disliked Foods - items marked as dislikes on a person's personal menu are not included.
-
Include Also Available Menu - items offered on an active Also Available menu are included.
- Click the Update Report Preset button to apply your changes.
FAQs
I do not see my resident on the Instant Ordering screen?
For a resident to appear on the Instant Ordering screen in the Touch app, their service type in the MealSuite core system must be set to Table Select. To change the service type of a resident, see Selecting Service Types (Table Select, Advanced Ordering, Non-Select) for Persons.
Can portion sizes of items be adjusted when using Instant Ordering (IO)?
No, not directly. However, if a Touch app modifier grid has been created to apply modifiers to ordered items (see Creating a Touch App Modifier Grid for AO and IO Orders), then that modifier grid allows for the portion size to be adjusted.
If a Touch app modifier grid does not exist to apply modifiers, then you will have to create a modifier grid in Touch Admin for just such a purpose. To do so, see Creating a Modifier Grid to Just Allow for Portion Size Adjustments.
