Menu Maintenance from the PAD

Before you begin

Menu management on the PAD requires menu permissions and a site-level menu. Sites using an HQ master menu must make changes in Tabit Office.

Open and select a menu

  1. From a profile with menu permissions, open Operations > Operations tab > Menu management (called Menu maintenance in the release notes).

  2. Check the menu name at the top. Tap it to choose another menu.

Pending changes in Tabit Office can block some PAD actions. Publish those changes from Tabit Office before continuing.

Organize categories and items

Select a category from the list on the left, then use the following controls:

  • Add a category: tap the plus icon above the category list.

  • Reorder categories or subcategories: drag them to their new position.

  • Remove a category: drag it to the trash icon.

  • Move or reorder an item: press and hold it, then drag it to the required position or subcategory.

  • Remove an item from the display: press and hold it, then drag it to the trash icon at the bottom.

  • Add a group: tap Add group at the bottom.

Removing or rearranging existing content changes the menu display without deleting catalog items. Creating items and changing prices also update the catalog.

  2. Tap Done, then review the previous price and the difference.

  3. Tap Apply to keep the change, or Undo to restore the previous price.

Open-price items cannot be repriced here; the server enters their amount when ordering.
