  • Functionality added to the forced and unforced modifiers. This allows businesses to program multiple sets of modifiers, both forced (where the number of choices is controlled) and unforced, so that more complex items can be supported on menus.  An example would be a meal deal when the user chooses a Hamburger Meal button, and then is required (forced) to choose the type of bun, then temperature of the burger, then the type of side(s), then the drink and then is allowed to choose as many add-on unforced modifiers as they wish, such as cheese, bacon, lettuce, onion, ketchup, pickle, etc…
  • As always, the modifiers can be add $0.00 or add a value to the selection. So items already programmed to charge, i.e. $1.00 extra for bacon while ketchup adds $0.00, would still charge accordingly.
  • Functionality includes setting the order other the forced modifiers sets appear in, and the order that the unforced modifiers appear at the end or in the “Finalize” stage. Users have options to cancel, start over, and declare when to add to cart. Custom messages may still be applied to the order.
  • Turning multistage modifiers can be enabled in the General Options section.

  • Added 10 more special pricing zones (i.e. Happy Hour or member pricing), making 15 in total possible special pricing zones.  These zones can overlap, be nested, or run in conjunction with member specials.  The special prices are prioritized using the arrows on the special pricing page.  Special prices can be edited on the master pricing page, or in the specific item buttons on the button layout page.
  • Added variants to buttons.  Variants can be used to make different versions of the same product, but have them stem from the same button.  This is not to be confused with modifiers.  A typical variant would be a double shot, especially one that does not double in price, making tapping/clicking a single shot twice invalid.  Variants can be set up in the specific item buttons on the button page, can be linked to the same product as the master button of that item (a special product search, that uses entered text and pull downs, has been added to help find the product), and can be set to have special pricing for any or all of the 15 special pricing zones.
  • Users will be presented with a choice of the variants when the button is selected during normal use.  Once the user selects the specific variant, that item is added to the cart with the appropriate variant.  For instance, a Jack Daniels button might have a single, double and triple variant added.  When the user selects the Jack Daniels button, the three variants are offered as the choice to the user.  If the user selects double, the item will be added to the cart reading, Jack Daniels – Double.  The print order print out will reflect the same format.
  • Color coding added to the total on the button page, below the cart.  The items in the cart also follow the same color coding.
    • Green – Normal pricing applies
    • Yellow – Special pricing applies
    • Blue – Member Only pricing applies

  • MyData functionality added to include the printout of open tabs.  The interface will also allow users to go directly to open tabs review page.
  • Wireless light controls added.  This system is controlled by the program and utilizes wireless and hot spot networks.  Modules will also handle dimming non-dimming LED light bulbs using steps.  For questions about the new wireless light controls, please contact technical support at 724-602-5223.
