How Menus work in Shopbox
Menus in Shopbox are used to create offers or combinations of two or more products. This is especially useful if you want to sell bundles or quantity discounts, such as “3 soft drinks for DKK 35” or “Popcorn + beer at a combined price”.
When should I use a menu?
Use Menus when:
- An offer consists of multiple products
- The price is lower than the total price of the individual products
- The customer should be able to choose between several products within the same offer
Create a menu
- Go to the Menus tab.
- Click the “+” in the top-right corner.
- Fill in the following fields:
Basic information
- Menu name
The name of the menu. -
Official name
This is automatically filled in based on the Menu name.
This is the name shown on the register and in reports. It can be changed. -
Printer name
This is also filled in automatically.
Use this if the menu should have a specific name on kitchen or bar prints. -
Category
The category the menu should belong to. -
Price
The total price of the menu.
Add products to the menu
Click Add Menu Items and fill in the following:
-
Number of products
How many products must be selected before the menu price is activated.
-
% of price
Distributes the menu price across the product lines.
-
Search in product
Search for and select the products that should be included in the menu.
You can select multiple products in the same line to give the customer different options.
Example 1: 3 soft drinks for 35,00
- Menu price: 35
- Number of products: 3
- % of price: 100%
- Products in the line:
Cola, Cola Zero, Sprite, Fanta, Pepsi, Pepsi Max
The customer can freely choose 3 soft drinks from the selection, and the price will automatically be 35,-.
This type of menu is not shown as one button on the register, because there are several possible combinations.
Example 2: Popcorn + draught beer
In this example, two menu lines are used:
Line 1
- Number of products: 1
- % of price: 50%
- Product: Popcorn
Line 2
- Number of products: 1
- % of price: 50%
- Product: Beer
This menu only has one possible combination and will therefore be shown as a product on the register.
When you tap the menu, both popcorn and draught beer are automatically added to the cart to the menu price.
