Package functionality allows you to combine a "standard" set of menu items into a bundle for quick addition on an Event menu. Another way to think of it is to design set menus (Package ‘A’ contains this particular entree, this particular side dish, this particular dessert, etc).
1. Select the ‘Menu Items> Menu Item Packages> Full Search’ option from the Navigation Bar.
2. Click the ‘Create New Package’ button on the ‘Menu Item Package Select page.
3. Enter a name for this package in the ‘Package Name:’ text box.
4. Enter a ‘Package Category:’ or click the ‘Quick Add Category’ button to add a Package Category on the fly.
5. Click the ‘Save’ button.
6. Select the new package name (just added) by clicking the ‘View’ link.
7. From the ‘Add Menu Items to Package’ tab, select a Menu Item you would like to bundle in this package. Click the ‘Add to Package’ button. Repeat for the rest of the Menu Items belonging to this package.
8. To reorder the items in the grid (shown in the order they will appear on the Proposal) click the ‘Edit Sequence and Headings’ button. Drag and drop the items and click the ‘Back to Package’ button.
9. To view the menu items in the package, click the ‘Items Currently in Package’ button.
10. To delete a menu item(s) from the package, click the ‘Items Currently in Package’ button, check the item(s) you wish to delete and click the ‘Remove from Package’ button.
11. Optionally, if this menu will have an associated per serving cost when used on an event, you can enter in a price in the ‘Per Serving Price’ text box to assign a Per Serving Price to this package. Refer to the topic Event Menu for more details on pricing.
12. Click the ‘Back’ button.
