      Edit Settings:

      • Ordering is turned: this indicates if your location allows ordering within all zones. If you need to turn on/off ordering altogether you would toggle this switch. 
      • Read Only Mode: Allows a location to be "read only" and not orderable. 
      • Help Button is turned: This displays a help button throughout the guest ordering flow. 
      • Catalog Browsing is turned: this toggle is useful for locations that utilize our "Menus" feature. Swaps viewing your menu as a product catalog to viewing between the different menus you have in play. 
      • Auto Re-Enable 86'd Products is turned: Allows you to decide if you want products to automatically enable themselves the following day after being 86'd or if you want to turn it off to manually enable products.

      • POS will ignore schedules: On the POS, servers will be able to order any products at any time despite guest-facing time constraints on menus. 
      • POS Order Note Short Cuts: Create custom buttons on the POS to streamline ordering. For example, operators can create "no make," "takeout," "curbside," and "rush" buttons.
