Item Availability, Item Groups & Item Size Groups

Item Availability

The Item Availability screen gives users the ability to quickly turn an item "on" or "off" depending on the item supply at the restaurant by utilizing the Active checkbox. Item availability may also be set for specific order channels (Delivery, Drive-Thru, etc.) by using the checkbox in their respective columns.

Item Groups

Item groups are collections of items with common characteristics, used for item validation or qualifications in various areas of the system. There are also various item group related reports available in both the Register and the Admin Portal.

Item Size Groups

Item size groups are a way to organize items by size (for example, "Small Beverage" 0, "Medium Beverage" 1, "Large Beverage" 2). Item Size Groups are used in conjunction with the 'Change Item Size' button behavior, which allows the user to change the size of the selected item up or down.
