I am wantiing a button that will allow a server to ring up say a crown and coke and hit a button labeled "double" and it double the price and let the bartenders know.

Thanks for any help :)
 
It may be possible to use menu price levels. Program menu price level two to be the price you want; program the menu item to enable multi-level pricing; place a level button on the screen that activates level two. In this method however the bartender would need to press the level two button first; than press crown but it's a clean way of doing it.
 
Hey TobeThor and thanks for the help :) Well i tryed a few things and none seemed to work out for me.. I am only really needing this for the servers to print up to the bartenders so they know to make a double. I tried using one of my premade items (crown and set level 7 price to $15) and its item class is set to use prices 2-10. i then made a button on my liquor main screen named it double and selected category: Function Transaction and tried setting its function to main level 7, then menu lvl select main lvl 7, menu lvl select sublvl 7.. and none of those would work when i would hit it then hit my item(crown in this case).. am i missing something???

Thanks again for the help!

Are you looking for the prefix "Double" to show on your order chits?
If so go to "Menu Item Classes", "Print Display", and check "Menu level name"
Go to "Revenue Centre", "RVC Transactions", "Menu Levels" and if you are using menu level 7 for your doubles add "Main Level Name" to "Double" and "Prefix" to "DB" or something your bar staff will recognize as a double.
 
Hey guys and thanks! well i been real busy but finally have time to get back to this.. crazy week.. my mobo died on my BOH. Anyways i got it working now as far as the double button. Initialy they set that item class to only prices 1-6 so thats why level 7 wasnt working for me.
But now my problem is that after i hit the double button it switches to main lvl 6 for me but then i cant get back to regular lvl 1 after using that button without sending and then go back to the check.. Do i have to have a main lvl 1 button on the screen to get back to normal prices or can i make it just do the one item then automatically go back to lvl 1?

Thanks again Wildbar and TobeThor for all the help :)
 
ok found out a little more.. now it works where whatever you highlight then hit the lvl6 button switches the highlighted items to lvl6 and adds the prefix dbl in front of them on the chit and ticket screen. If you dont highlight anything and hit that button it changes any unserviced items that can use lvl6 to lvl6. Is there a way around this or do i just have to tell servers to be very careful when hitting this button and be sure to only highlight the item they want doubled or lvl6 activated.??
