How to configure "Double Up for a Buck" Shortcut

This document will show you how to configure a "Double up for a Buck" discount

  • This can be used when the happy hour special is "buy one drink and get a second drink for $1"
  • First name the button Double up for a Buck
  • An optional Description: Buy one bottled beer get the second one for $1
  • You could optionally add a context filter to this shortcut that
    • only allows bartenders and servers to apply this discount
    • is only available in the bar zone
    • Is only available with the dine in order type

First Action: Duplicate Item

  • On the terminal it will duplicate the selected item(s), or the last entered unsent item
  • On the handheld it will ONLY duplicate the last entered item, that is still unsent (Green)
    • It will NOT duplicate an item that was previously sent

Second Action: Price Adjust Item

  • On the terminal and the handheld it will price adjust the duplicated item
  • For this example I set the price adjustment to change the price of the item to $1
  • I also set an item filter for "Bottled Beer" so the price adjustment is only valid if they duplicate a bottled beer

See it in Action:

  • I added the "Double up for a Buck" shortcut to the speedrail so that its easy to find
  • When I ring in a bottled beer, it will duplicate it, and then price adjust the second item to $1
    • If I ring in an item other than a bottled beer, it will duplicate it, but not price adjust it to $1
