Screen Categories
Screen Categories will be the first set of buttons shown in the Order Entry window. Screen Categories help
you to group together Menu Items so that they appear in a logical order on the Order Entry screen. You can
create any Screen Categories that make sense for your restaurant. You may want to follow your printed menu
as a guideline for creating Screen Categories.
For example, if your printed menu has sections for Beverages, Appetizers, Sandwiches, Entrees, and
Desserts, then these would make sense as Screen Categories.
If your business is an espresso bar and you sell many categories of beverages, then setting up Screen
Categories for each beverage type might make more sense. You might have espresso drinks, drip
coffees, hot teas, and cold teas, all as individual Screen Categories.
The section with the yellow arrow is the Screen categories.

Assigning Menu Items to Screen Categories
Once you have created your Screen Categories and Menu Items you are ready to decide where particular
Menu Items appear on the screen. You do this by assigning Menu Items to the proper categories. A Menu
Item can belong to multiple Screen Categories.
To add Menu Items to a Screen Category
When you return to the Order Entry screen, the item you added will appear when the assigned Screen
Category is selected.
