The Menu Item Maintenance module allows you to search for menu items. Typically several thousand menu item records are likely to exist. Searching and filtering allows you to work with only the desired menu item records. By default, no items appear in table view.
Depending on the number of menu items, this step may take several minutes.
Record Type: Select the type of record to find (Menu Item Master, Menu Item Definition, or Menu Item Price). When both a Menu Item Master and a revenue center are selected, Simphony returns only master records with definitions in the selected revenue center.
Name Search: Enter the menu item name (partial or full) to search. Only records containing the text in the name field for the specified language are returned. Menu Item Definition and Price searches will look for the text in either the Name 1 or Name 2 fields. Entering Shrimp Cocktail returns the specific record; a family group search on Appetizers returns results more quickly.
Major Group: Enter a major group number or a range of major group numbers to include in the search.
Family Group: Enter a family group number or a range of family group numbers to include in the search.
Master Group: Enter a menu item master group number or a range of master group numbers to include in the search.
Object Number or Range: Enter an object number or range of object numbers to include in the search.
Show Master w/Defs Only: Select to show only menu item master records that contain one or more definitions for this zone or property. Deselect to show all menu item master records for this level or above.
Map Menu Item Overrides: Select to show the Menu Item Override indicator, which allows you to see other locations in the Enterprise where the item is configured. Deselect to exclude the Menu Item Override indicator. As the system needs to check the entire enterprise for the menu item, the search results will take longer to generate. Therefore, set this option only when there is a specific need to see this information.
Class: Enter a menu item class or range of menu item classes to include in the search when querying menu item definitions or menu item prices.
SLU: Enter a SLU or range of SLUs to include in the search when querying menu item definitions or menu item prices.
Sales Itemizer: Enter a sales itemizer or range of sales itemizers to include in the search when querying menu item definitions or menu item prices.
