Simple menus
A simple menu is a standard offering that does not include any choices or items sold on consumption. For example, a brunch menu for 25.00 per person always includes certain foods and non-alcoholic beverages. When you create a simple menu, you need to enter the details in the Rich Description field on the New Item page.
Revenue allocation
The revenue from a simple menu is divided into one or more revenue categories, each of which corresponds with a particular revenue classification. In the brunch example above, the entire menu price of 25.00 is allocated to Food. However, if the menu includes an alcoholic beverage, the revenue is divided into two categories: Food and Beverage. In this case, you might allocate 17.00 to Food and 8.00 to Beverage.
A menu's price needs to match the sum of the revenue breakdowns. This ensures correct taxing on the banquet check and accurate revenue reporting. The Revenue Breakdown tab can be used to adjust the breakdowns as needed.
BEO and banquet check placement
You can indicate where a simple menu displays on the BEO and Banquet Check with the Classification field on the menu's detail page.
