Product groups organize what you sell into sections such as Beverages and Food. The same form also holds printer or screen selection, QR Menu visibility, and sort order. Understanding how groups work matters for day-to-day service.

Open Product Groups under Products in the menu. Use + beside the heading to add a product group, or the arrow menu beside it to add a variant group.

Variant: Options such as small, medium, and large with different sizes or prices for one product.

Add a product group

Fill in the form opened with + to add as many product groups as you need.

Add or edit product group form — Product group form

Keep group names clear, such as Starters, Appetizers, and Main Courses. Descriptions appear in the free QR Menu.

If you have more than one production area, choose Screen/Printer on this form.

Businesses with more than 10 groups can build a hierarchy with parent groups.

Sort order controls list position. For example, Soups can be 1 and Starters 2. Use spaced numbers such as 0-10-20 instead of 0-1-2 so you can insert groups later.

The system colors groups by order. You can pick fixed colors if you prefer (for example red for red meat, green for salad).

Emojis can help new staff remember groups.

Set Visible? to No to hide a group. For visible on orders but hidden in the QR Menu, set Visible? to Yes and Visible in QR Menu? to No.

Add a variant group

Variant group form (similar fields; no visibility options)

A variant group is like a product group but does not appear while taking orders, so visibility fields are omitted. Sort order is often kept near the end (for example 90) so size options stay grouped at the bottom of the list.

Product groups organize items on the order screen and in the QR Menu.

Edit product groups

In the Product Groups table, use each row's actions to edit, delete, or add a product to that group. The next lesson also covers adding products from the Products page.
