Select the method for determining if and when to print a bag manifest from 'Sundries print trigger.' This option does not control when to print sundry items, only when to print a bag manifest. Your choices are:
-
No auto printing – Requires you to manually initiate the printing of a bag manifest from the Aloha Takeout FOH.
-
Auto print on order items – Prints a bag manifest when you commit the order to an order mode.
-
Auto print on order bump – Prints a bag manifest when you bump the order from the kitchen video screen. This option requires Aloha Kitchen.
Reference: If you select 'No auto printing,' you must add the bag manifest print buttons to the Aloha Takeout FOH so that you can manually initiate the printing of a bag manifest. Refer to "Adding Bag Manifest Print Buttons to Aloha Takeout FOH".

Select Print header at bottom of checklist to print the header at the bottom of the chit. By default, the order mode, order number, and customer information prints at the top of the checklist above the order information checklist.
