Menu Schedules
Menu Schedules are what control the visibility, and availability of the menus for each service. If a menu or service is not scheduled, then it cannot be accessed via the POS. Menu schedules also allow you to make certain menus only available during specific days of the week, and times of the day. For example, if you only want a certain menu to be visible on the POS from 5-7pm on weekdays, you can accomplish this via the menu schedules.
Menu Schedules are accessed in TRAY HQ by selecting the Menus from the side menu then selecting Menu Schedules from the top menu
Permission requirements: View Menu Schedules, Add Menu Schedules, Edit Menu Schedules, Delete Menu Schedules
To create a menu schedule for a menu that is available 24/7,
The start time should be 00:00 AM
