See below new features, improvements and bug fixes for the past month.
New Features
Anonymous Checkout FEATURE FLAG
If your customers don’t wish to create an account in order to make on online order with your business you can now activate Anonymous checkout and still collect your contact details in order to fulfil their order
You can decide to make the following fields optional or mandatory for the customer. This won’t create an account for them, and if they come back to order again they’ll have to input the data a second time:
First name / Last name / Phone number / EmailYou will still get the order information onto your orders screen and Dashboard analytics, however you will not get their contact information
The option as shown to customers
Item level Instructions FEATURE FLAG MENU
Previously we’ve had the ability to set item level instructions but it was on an item by item basis, and now you have the choice to apply this to all items much more simply. Enabling this gives the customer a text box where they can type instructions about their item. E.g. for a burger they might write “no lettuce”. This keeps item instructions tied to the item and not all stored in one place via the Special Instructions box at checkout
You can set the number of characters in the text box so that it matches well with your printer/screen, and choose for this to be a mandatory or optional field. You can also turn this off per item should you choose to
Item level instructions will get sent to your POS
Improvements
ICR POS improvements FEATURE FLAG ICR POS
Menu items will keep the same position and structure as they have on the POS when they are synced to our Dashboard
Via the Outlet Locations we can choose to ask a customer specific questions at checkout, such as for Curbside Collection ‘what is your car registration?’. This gets sent correctly to the POS
Oliver White is this an issue still? Send Curbside Pickup Information to ICR POS
If you use a 3rd party delivery provider your POS will just tell you the time to prepare your order by, and not bother you with then it needs to be delivered
If you have a modifier that is used more than once - e.g. the option to add salt/vinegar - it will not create only one modifier per menu, thus keeping your dashboard cleaner and more streamlined
