Menus - Items Custom Labels (New UI ONLY)

Meal Manager Admin users can create Menu Category labels to create customised labels so that menu selections can be grouped by Menu Category Labels.

Creating/Editing/Deleting Menu Item Labels

Go to Settings > Site Info [1] > Menus [2]

In Menu Item Labels table enter a custom label name in the Add Description field [3], press the Enter key and click Save [4].

NOTE Menu Item Labels are automatically ordered alphabetically.

To Delete an existing Custom Label, select the Menu Item Label [5] in the table and click the Delete key on the keyboard.

In the Delete Menu Item Label window, click OK [6].

Assigning Menu Item Labels

To assign a Menu Item Label to Menu Items, go to Menus > Items > click an existing Menu Item [1].

In Details [2] scroll down and click the Menu Label dropdown [3] to select a Menu Item Label.

Scroll to the top of the page and click Save [4].

Menus Label filter

The Menu Items search filter can be used to only show Menu Items that have been assigned to a specific Label e.g. Menu Label #2.

Go to Menus > Menus > select a Menu [1] > Menu Filter [2]

In the Select Label window click the Label drop-down [3], select the desired Label (e.g. New Label #2) and click Apply [4].

After setting a Filter you will only see Menu Items that have the New Menu #2 Label [5] applied to them.

To clear the Filter click the X on the Filter identifier [6].

Parent Selection – Displaying custom labels

Admin users can configure Menu Category labels so that meals in the Parent Selection applications are grouped by Menu Category labels.

When Menu Item Labels are configured, menu categories are displayed based on the Menu Item Label e.g. Salad Bar (Main). If a menu item does not have a Label, the menu type will be displayed as a category (e.g. Main).

Menu Type categories should be displayed in the following order:

• Main: Custom Categories of Main Menu Type in alphabetical order ascending
• Vegetables: Custom Categories of Vegetables Menu Type in alphabetical order ascending
• Dessert: Custom Categories of Dessert Menu Type in alphabetical order ascending

NOTE Drink and Other Menu Types are not displayed on the parent portal
