Adding button to FOH for on-demand campaign voucher printing
The Aloha POS system allows you to print a campaign voucher on demand from a FOH terminal.
Tip: We highly recommend using a script on the button, so that you can include manager approval for security reasons and have better control over who receives the campaign voucher.
You can add the button to any panel in Quick Service; however, for Table Service, you must add the button to either a floor plan in use or create a panel of the Order Entry type to customize the buttons available to you in the lower right portion of the order entry screen.
Tip: If you choose to customize the buttons available in the lower right portion of the order entry screen, refer to the Custom TS Order Entry Screen Feature Focus Guide for more information.
