You can create a menu item that prompts a keyboard to type in a custom name and prompt a custom price. The open menu item is saved to a specific category, department and tax table for accounting purposes. While the user can fully customize the name and price, the item is set to specific remote printers so the item always routes to the proper station.
- Managers Menu > Menu Maintenance > Menu Items and Pricing
- Type in a menu item name (such as Open Liquor)
- You can either use this menu item name as the name of your item or you can prompt a keyboard to customize the menu item name on the fly.
