Managing the Menu

Managing your Menu can be all be done through the talech application. Starting from the Register, head to Dashboard > Back Office > Menu. 

Note: You must be an Admin or Owner in order to make changes to the Menu. 

Navigating the Menu 

There are 5 sections to the Menu. 

• Products - This section will show all created product tiles
• Discounts - Discounts are preset discount amounts that can be set up to activate when you want. They can be controlled via categories, tags, and can set up to automatically trigger
• Tags - Tags are an option feature which allow you to group similar products across categories. Tags are used in Discounts, kitchen ticket printing, and reporting
• Modifiers - Modifiers are in addition to your existing products. There are Variations, Add-ons, and Exclusions. 
• Categories - Categories are how you want to classify your items. Putting products together that are alike is typically best practice.
