What is the Manage Plates Feature?
Manage Plates is a feature for tableside select ordering (i.e., instant ordering) that allows an individual plate with multiple items to be added to an order, which in turn adds each item to the order.
Showing Image of Plate to Diner
In addition, by clicking the photo for the plate, a full size image appears that you can show to the diner so that they have a visual image of the items on the plate. This is an ideal feature for foods with texture modifications so that the person can see the visual of the food.
Easily Locating Plates
Any plates that are created for the menu instance (week, day, meal period) can easily be located by clicking the Plates option.
What if Diner has a Diet Restriction?
If the diner has a diet restriction (i.e., allergen, diet order, do not serve), then the system will remove the affected item from the plate and indicate such with a message.
