New POS - Seat Number Force

csholley — Mon, 18 Dec 2023 18:19:38 GMT

Is there a way to force a seat number choice on the New POS experience, similar to how the 'old' version worked? Instead of having to highlight each seat to automatically ring items in under it, we used to be able to choose a seat when an item was rung in.

This slows down service for larger groups, having to scroll to each seat separately and then return to the section rather than just staying on the Draft Beer section and then being able to choose the seats from there.

Yes, just disable order by seat and it will work like it did before.

I saw this response to a previous post, but this solution does not work for me.

I just realized that there is an actual toggle slide button rather than just changing the 'Required', 'Optional', 'Off'. Perfect! Thank you!

That was going to be next question, glad you found it! You're welcome.
