Configuring your menu 

After you’ve imported your menu using the MOBI Add-on you’ll have a great base to work from. You’ll just need to make some tweaks so it works for customers too.

You can do this yourself, or email MOBI for some help.

 

Your first sync will bring across everything in your Lightspeed Kounta POS. To make it ready to go online, you will need to curate the products and relationships by disabling or removing anything that shouldn’t be public-facing.

Menus

The top level. Your menus contain all of your categories, products, modifier groups and modifiers. It’s simplest for your customers if you just have one.

 

Categories

Categories are used to group your products. For example ‘Drinks’ would be a category.


Products

The items or meals you’d like to sell. Products can be shared across multiple categories and menus.

 

Modifier Groups

Modifier Groups are groups of choices you want to have on a product. For example ‘Drink Size’. 


Modifiers

Modifiers are the individual options you can choose in a Modifier Group. For example a ‘Small’ modifier. 



Curate your Categories and Products 

Often businesses will offer a streamlined menu online, to maximise margins and keep choices manageable for consumers.

1. Open the Categories tab of your MOBI Menu Editor

  1. Choose one of your Categories
  2. Open Edit Products
    4. Remove and Add products as needed

Check your Display and Internal names

You’ll want to make sure the categories and products you are putting online are clear for your customers.

Display names are visible to customers.

Internal names are not visible. They’re  a more descriptive name for internal tracking in the menu editor

Keeping your online menu in sync with Lightspeed

  2. Go to General Settings
  3. Locate the Sync Now button in Store settings


Syncing your menu can take some time, especially if it’s been a while since you last updated. After the Sync is complete you’ll get a summary of updates and new products created.

  2. Go to Settings 
  3. Choose Edit under Delivery Settings
