Select Maintenance > Messaging > Server Info Messages to display the Server Info Messages function.

Server Info Messages allow you to communicate with employees, when they clock in to the system, to announce meetings, promote specials, and more. You control who receives each message by selecting a specific employee, up to five specific job codes, all bartenders, or all order entry employees. These messages also print on clock-in chits when an employee receiving it clocks in. The clock-in chits print at the printer defined for and attached to the clock-in terminal.
