We are long term Toast users/fans and are expanding our flagship location. In this expansion, we will have a second bar.
I am looking for what others are doing? I wish it was possible to route kds prep stations by either (a) the terminal or (b) jobcode that the user was working from. But Toast tells me that is not possible.
The only work around I can think of is duplicating our entire menu, and creating duplicate items (w slightly different names) that the server could then choose menu group (Main Bar) vs menu group (2nd Bar)
Any suggestions out there?
Thank you!
Matt

@MQP Hey! I have 2 bars in my location, two service wells as well. Routing is key! As stated below - you will be two service/prep stations. Mine are "Tap Room Service & Gastro Service". All bar items route to each well. We use handhelds - each rooms handheld is programmed to only print at it's perspective bar. Gastro table tickets don't send to the tap room, Tap Room tickets don't send to Gastro, etc. It's really fun and totally eliminated the need for a "hidden menu". If you need more information please message me! I LOVE to talk about routing!
