Not Allowing Items from Also Available Menu
On the Advanced Ordering and Instant Ordering screens in Touch, you can hide the Include Also Available check box for a menu category and meal period (breakfast, lunch, dinner) combination (screenshot below). When the Include Also Available check box is hidden for a menu category/meal period combination, the Touch user therefore cannot list the items from a scheduled also available menu.
To hide the Include Also Available check box selected for a menu category/meal period combination, complete the following steps:
- In Touch Admin, select Ordering Settings > Category Settings. The Category Settings screen appears, listing the menu categories for each meal period. Note that menu categories are created in the MealSuite site; see Menu Categories for more information.
- Select the desired meal period (Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner) from the top row. The screen refreshes with the menu categories set up for that meal period.
- Select the Edit button of the desired menu category. The Edit Category screen appears.
- Select the Do not show Also Available menu items in this Category check box.
- Click the Update Category Meal button to apply your changes.
