Steps

A fixed-price menu consists of several courses, where a customer has to make a choice per course.

In booq POS it is possible to create a fixed-price menu.

When you click on the item "3-course fixed-price menu" a pop-up appears which shows the corresponding dishes. You select a dish by clicking the 'circle' behind it. The 'speech icon' allows you to enter a comment. At the 'booklet icon' you find the common additions that you have predefined in the back office. Clicking "next" you go through all the choices in the menu.

The customer may not yet know what the dessert choice is. By clicking "ok" in the pop-up, you will see an incomplete menu on the receipt, as the dessert has not yet been chosen. By clicking on the menu in the order and then "edit" you can change the menu. For example, add a dessert or choose another dish from the drop-down menu.

If the customer does not want a dessert, click on the menu and then "split". This will calculate the starter and main course at the standard price instead of the price for the 3-course menu.

Consider when setting up a French menu that you always use items with a price, not 0,- and that these prices, when added together, are higher than the menu price.
When ordering a French menu on the POS system, the difference on the POS is distributed among the selected products. The system assumes that you are offering the customer a more favourable deal than when the individual items are ordered separately. To achieve this advantage, the selected items receive a discount. It is crucial to always choose an item with a price for the choice menu, with the combined costs of the items being higher than the menu amount. If this is not the case, instead of applying a discount, the system may charge a higher amount, which could be confusing for the customer. The applied discount is transparently displayed on the bill, allowing the guest to clearly see that the choice menu was indeed more advantageous.
Additionally, the total revenue is accurately allocated to the ordered products, resulting in a detailed and accurate revenue report. The French menus are also included in this report, albeit only in terms of the number of ordered French menu's, without specific amounts. This approach ensures not only accurate billing but also provides insight into the popularity of choice menus within the overall revenue structure.
