Dining Special Requests and Activity comments
When a dining reservation is created through an activity reservation, the activity reservation's Comment is stored in the Special Request field for the dining reservation. The program keeps these fields identical; updating Special Request for the dining reservation updates the Comment field for the linked activity reservation and vice versa.
To display Special Requests in the POS
Dining attributes have their own panel, Attribute Entries, where they are maintained. Here you can add attributes, change them, and delete.
By linking the Special Requests to a dining attribute, you can view and edit Special Requests through the Attribute Entries panel from various places:
- From the Dining Allocation panel.
- From the Table Overview.
- From the Sales POS.
