Manage menu categories
This is how you create and manage categories such as hot drinks, appetizers, or pizza.
Categories structure your menu. A Drinks menu contains typical categories such as Hot Drinks, Soft Drinks, Beer, or Wine. A Food menu contains Appetizers, Main Courses, and Desserts.
Categories are printer-relevant
Via article groups you can control which categories are routed to which printer — e.g. drinks to the bar, food to the kitchen.
Create a new category
First, select the menu where you want the category to appear (tab at the top). Then, click on + Category in the upper right corner.
Enter the following information:
-
Icon: Category icon (e.g., cup for hot drinks, pizza icon for pizza)
-
Name: Category name (e.g., Hot Drinks, Appetizers)
-
Color: Optional — Accent color for the POS app
-
Active: Show/hide without deleting
Click Save. The new category will appear on the menu and will initially be empty — next, add items.
Edit, sort, or delete a category
Click the More menu (…) to the right of the category name. You can:
-
Edit Category — Change the name, icon, and color
-
Duplicate Category — Create a copy with all articles
-
Sort Articles — Change the order of the articles
-
Delete Category — Removes the category and all articles
Order of categories
You can change the category sorting via the More menu in the top right corner of the menu card → Sort categories. See Sorting.
