📄How to Create and Edit a KeyList

This article covers a step-by-step guide to Creating and Editing KeyLists in BackOffice.

Overview

KeyLists are created within BackOffice to Group together different  Products  that do not necessarily have any common features.

A KeyList can be used in a number of ways, some of which may include: 

Grouping together a select assortment of Products within a Product Group; 

Grouping together the same Sizes of Products to display together; 

Grouping together menu items which are featured together such as Daily Specials or Seasonal Favorites; 

Grouping together any Products that are not grouped together within the BackOffice Product List.

 

Prerequisites 

To access KeyMap features, the applicable Operator Privileges will need to be enabled 

    • Operator Maintenance 'Maintenance' Tab
    • Products: "Maintain Keymap Settings" Flag
