Concurrences

Concurrence is a required attribute of menu items and menu item shortcuts in the Menu and Draft menu directories. It is used to define how and where menu items are sold.

Sales rules applied to a concurrence will be inherited by the menu items associated with that concurrence. This removes the need to configure sales rules for every individual menu item.

Concurrences are created and managed in the Concurrences directory. There is no limit to the number of concurrences that can be created in the system.

For a menu item to be available in the menu on a terminal, its concurrence must be associated with the terminal. For recording sales of a menu item, its concurrence must be associated with the appropriate sales department.

The association between concurrence and terminal and between concurrence and sales department is configured in sales settings.

Sales settings also define the kitchen printer, the store from which stock items are deducted and the order-ready printer.

Sales settings for concurrences can be configured in the Concurrences directory. More than one sales setting can be configured for a single concurrence. These settings can also be configured in the Sales departments and Terminals directories.

The concurrence that a menu item is associated with can be changed at any time.
