Toast Menu Support Process | OS Menu Team
- Click to open your Toast Menu Support menu upload
- Navigate to the Toast Menu Dashboard
- Log in using menu-access@chownow.com email + 1Password credentials
- Navigate to the correct location (if you cannot find the location, place menu on "Waiting" and advise the task requestor we do not have proper access for this location yet)
- Determine whether or not this RP is migrated Toast source of truth platform by checking this tracker if this info hasn't been provided by the task requester.
- if RP has migrated over or is pending migration, complete this menu keeping the following SUPPORTED features in mind:
- Sub-groups (sub-categories): No need to flatten or remove, these will be flattened upon syncing to CN dashboard
- Overlapping Menus: We shouldn't combine menus and multiple can be scheduled at the same time.
- Nested Mods: Do not flatten nested mods, these should publish seamlessly
- Menu Photos: Add menu photos to the menu items in Toast dashboard instead of CN dashboard - these should publish seamlessly
- Availability (scheduling hours): Set scheduling hours in Toast, not CN dashboard
- Delivery hours: Set delivery hours in Toast, not CN dashboard (if you do not have access to the "Delivery" hour section in Toast, let the requestor know in your Chatter notes)
- Those that are not migrated yet, will still have ALL UNSUPPORTED features:
- Nested modifiers
- Size-based pricing
- Duplicate modifier/item names
- Sub-Groups (sub-categories)
- Overlapping Menus
- Time-based Pricing
- Sequence Pricing
- Negative base price for modifier options
- Menu photos
- Emojis
- Determine whether or not we're creating a whole new menu/items/mods (CN specific menu) OR editing exisiting menus in the Toast dashboard if this hasn't been provided by the task requester.
- Once you've made the determination above, click the "Menus" tab on the left hand panel > click "Edit Menus"9. Click on the menu(s) the client would like to sync with CN & review it for unsupported features (leverage CN Dashboard & the toast-menu-notifications channel for help here):
- Update Channel Visibility on all menus. Remove ChowNow visibility from menus that will not be used by CN, and ensure ChowNow visibility on those that will be used by ChowNow:
- Under "Visibility" settings, click on "Menu Builder"
- You should see the "Channel Visibility" settings.
- Removing visibility
- Update "Availability" & "Delivery" hours
- If migrated, set scheduling hours & delivery hours in Toast dashboard (if you do not have access to Delivery hours in Toast, note this to the task requestor)
- If not migrated, set scheduling/delivery hours in CN admin after publishing the menu(s) successfully
- Complete visual “spot-check” of menu(s) + identify any additional unsupported features
- Create new groups (categories), items, & mods as needed to build the menu to the client's liking (and solve unsupported feature issues) & frequently click "Save"
- Menu photos:
- If migrated, add menu photos to each item in the Toast dashboard
- If not migrated, add menu photos in the CN dashboard after publishing the menu(s) successfully
- Click "Publish" to sync Toast menu to CN Dashboard
- Check CN Dashboard to ensure sync was successful
- If there's still errors, go back to correct + then publish again until no more errors persist
- Audit successfully synced menu in CN Dashboard against Toast menu
- Add Chatter notes upon completion
- Mark menu as "Complete" or "Dashboard 100%"
How do we view Toast menu schedules in CN dashboard?
If migrated to source of truth, the RP's menu(s) & scheduling hours will not be visible in the CN menu editor. You will need to follow the steps below to view.
- Navigate to the RP's CN Dashboard
- Click on "Integrations" tab on the left side
- Click "Toast"
- Scroll down to "Menus". You'll can view all menus that are synced into CN dashboard & their respective schedules
