Station Overrides

In GoTab, you can set up station overrides that reroute products for fulfillment based on the zone the product is ordered in.

Station overrides are often used on complex setups such as operations with multiple bars, prep stations, and kitchens. Station Overrides allow your large operation to accommodate different zones, products, and stations.

How To Set Up a Station Override

To understand how a Station Override is set up, a product that is tagged with Tag and ordered through Zone will be directed to Station

In the example below, we see our Stone IPA is set to go to our Server Printer station as a baseline.

  1. Create a tag, and tag all applicable products in your product catalog. It's important to do this first. In the above example, we're going to use our "bar" tag to route our Stone IPA to somewhere other than the Server Printer in some instances. 
  2. Navigate to the Station Overrides tab in the Manager Dashboard
  3. Press Add
  4. Choose the tag
  5. Select the zone that needs rerouting to a new station
  6. Choose your station 

Example: For ours, we're going to send our Stone IPA to a no print station from our POS Only Zone since we immediately fulfill this beer for the guest, we don't need an unnecessary drink ticket to print.

Final Product: 

We now see that any item tagged with the "bar" tag--ordered in POS Only Zone--Routes to our Default No Print Station.

Note: If you have multiple prep stations, you will need to create a new override to reroute products to the correct station.
