Add a Category


Multi-store customer? You need to be in Company View to add and edit your items and categories.

When you set up your menu, you define the items for sale in your restaurant and the manner in which they appear on the POS app. Categories allow you to organize your items for quick navigation on the POS app. Create categories in which to group your items. For example, Salads, Soups, Sandwiches, Desserts, and Drinks. 


NOTE: The COLOR CODE MY CATEGORIES checkbox is selected by default, but you can uncheck this option if you prefer to not color code your categories.
 
  1. Select INVENTORY > CATEGORIES & ITEMS.

  2. Select ADD A CATEGORY to create a new item category.
