How to Create a Custom Item

If there is inventory that has not yet been added to the menu screen, or a special request item that needs to be rang in and charged appropriately the Custom Item function is a useful tool to quickly add the charge to the bill.

First you will want to navigate to the appropriate subcategory for the new item. In the example below I will be adding a new seasonal taco, so we've selected the Food(1)->Tacos(2) subcategory. Then we find the Custom Item(3) button at the bottom of the screen.

When clicked the system will prompt you to confirm that the item is being placed in the appropriate category. If the outlined category is where you would classify the item, then click yes to confirm.

This will open the prompt for the item's information. The first field is the Item Name(1) field where you will name the custom item. We are adding a "Carne Asada" taco. The second field is the Price(2) field where you will input the amount to be charged for the item. Then confirm the entry with the checkmark in the bottom right corner of the number pad.

Now that item has been added to the check, this item may be repeated on this check and can be modified using the Custom Modifier button when highlighted.
