Terminal Groups

Terminal groups are used when routing control is needed based on where the order originated from (based on the terminals configured and added to a terminal group within the site configuration).

An example use for terminal groups - Bar terminals do not route their coffee or drink orders because they are made by the team member at the bar and are not needed to be displayed on screen. Orders made on restaurants terminals should be routed to a barista station at the bar to prepare the drinks.

Name	The name given to the printer reference (used in the printing rules configuration and assigned to physical printers)

 

The configuration of terminals to groups is managed against each site individually allowing for different configurations to be applied on a site by site basis (allowing the same configuration template to be applied to multiple sites)

Terminal Groups can be used in Routing Rules to direct items to different stations but is optional and not required to setup a basic configuration
