Online Ordering

What customers see in the online menu

Understand online images/descriptions, sold-out items, badges, search, modifiers, notes, and checkout upsells.

Overview

  • The storefront uses shared MiniTill Categories, Products, Modifier Groups, and Modifier Options after Store/channel visibility and availability rules are applied.
  • Online-specific images/descriptions can improve customer presentation without changing the staff POS layout.
  • Customers can search menu items, filter in-stock items, choose required/optional modifiers, change quantities, and add notes.
  • Configured badges and checkout upsells can appear where eligible.
  • Sold-out products can remain visibly marked or be hidden according to Store settings.

When to use this

  • Review the public storefront whenever menu structure or promotions change.

Step-by-step

  1. Review category order.
  2. Add clear online images/descriptions.
  3. Test required modifiers.
  4. Verify sold-out behaviour.
  5. Test search, badges, upsells, and cart editing on mobile.

Common mistakes

  • Do not expose confusing internal shorthand to customers.
  • Do not make unnecessary modifiers required.
  • Do not expect POS Layout placement to control the storefront.

Troubleshooting

  • If a product is missing, check online visibility, Store overrides, availability, and sold-out presentation.
  • If an option cannot be selected, check modifier limits and availability.
