Step 1: Configuring items in POS
- Add all items in Infogenesis for the required Menu, including the correct pricing
- Include any modifiers for the Dish items, and ensure they are set as 'forced Modifiers'
Step 2: Perform a Sync
In order for the item changes to appear in GXP, a sync is required with EMC.
- Navigate to Content Management >FnB Menu in the sidebar of the platform
- Select the Menu you wish to update
- Select the POS Setup tab
- Scroll down to the bottom and select Sync Now.
- Review sync status by navigating to POS Sync Status tab
Do not change the settings on this page, as this can remove all items from the menu!
Step 3: Adding new items
- Navigate to Content Management > Categories in the sidebar of the platform
- Select the Category you wish to add your new items to, e.g. Breakfast (see below as an example)
4. Scroll down on the Category page until you come to Items, this is where you can add your new items to your Mobile Dining menu
5. Click 'Add Item' and a pop-up box will appear and this is where you can assign the items to the category
6. Search for the items you wish to assign using the search box highlighted in red below, then click on the item you wish to assign to the category, so it transfers into the right-hand column
7. Save
For More information, refer to Assigning an item to a category
Tip: Check if the item is set to visible - Making an Item Visible
Step 4: Hiding/Removing Items
- Navigate to Content Management> Items
- Select item
- Make the item visible by switching the toggle 'Is Visible' to no.
- Save
Step 5: Price changes
Prices are inherited from the item in POS and cannot be changed in IRIS Manager. To change the price of an item, ensure the price is correct POS and perform a sync, (following from step 2 above).
The price will then automatically update (in draft view) and reflect the price provided from POS
Step 6: Publish changes
Making Content Management changes to IRIS Manager are not automatically visible on the front-end for guests to view. To make the changes visible, first, a Version must be created and then set as live.
- Navigate to Content Management > Versions
- Select 'Draft Version'
- Review changes have been made successfully
- Finally, Create a Version and set it as live - Versioning a Property
