Online menu presentation

Overview

• MiniTill can present products differently online without requiring a separate duplicate catalogue.
• Products have default Show online settings and can use a separate Online Product Image from the normal Product image.
• Store product settings can include online visibility, online description/image overrides, and online sort order.
• Products can carry optional online badges with priority and start/end times.
• Eligible products can be enabled as checkout upsell candidates with priority and tags.

When to use this

• Use online presentation settings when a customer-facing menu needs richer images/descriptions than the staff POS.
• Use badges for meaningful temporary/promotional labels and upsells for sensible add-ons, not for every product.

Step-by-step

1. Edit the Product and enable Show online where appropriate.
2. Add a customer-friendly description and Online Product Image if different from the internal/product image.
3. For store-specific presentation, review the Store product's online visibility, description/image override, and sort order.
4. Add a badge only when its label adds useful information; configure priority and optional start/end times.
5. Enable checkout upsell only for products that make sense as add-ons and assign appropriate tags/priority.
6. Open the public storefront and verify how the product appears on mobile.

Common mistakes

• Do not assume Show on POS and Show online are the same setting.
• Do not upload text-heavy images that become unreadable on a phone.
• Do not enable every product as an upsell candidate.
• Do not leave outdated promotional badges active indefinitely when a start/end window would be clearer.

Troubleshooting

• If an item is missing online, check Store online ordering status, Product/Category online visibility, Store overrides, and availability.
• If the wrong image appears, determine whether the Product image, Online Product Image, or Store online image override is taking precedence.
• If a badge is missing, check whether it is enabled and whether its configured time window is currently active.
