Scheduled Price Level Changes

Description

 

This menu item is used to Schedule Price Level Changes. This can be useful for sites that charge a surcharge on Public Holidays and/or Weekends.

 

To Be Considered

 

  1. This option is NOT the recommended for Price Changes associated with Happy Hours. We recommend the use of the Happy Hour feature to schedule Happy Hour Price changes.
  2. Price Level Changes will also update the pricing on the Menu Boards, Customer Facing Displays, etc to reflect the changed price.
