Native Ordering - Menu Configuration - Revel:

Native Ordering - Menu Configurations - Revel:

Native Ordering - Modifiers/Options - Revel:

Native Ordering - Custom Menu Grouping Setup - Revel:

Lunchbox Menus are pulled into the Admin Dashboard the same way whether it is the initial sync or a subsequent sync.

Note: Importing Multiple Menus is supported through the Revel and Lunchbox integration as long as the menu Mode/Station is set to online.

Name, Price, Description, Photo & Location Availability, Menu Modifier Classes and Modifiers within those groups. Modifier Required Min Max & Inventory/Item Qty.

Custom Menu Groups - Lunchbox doesn’t have an equivalent for this and all Categories have to be added to the same Custom Menu Group.

Menu = Menu

Subcategory = Category

Product = Item

Modifier Class = Pick List

Modifiers = Picklist Members / Items

The following is a list of menu-related rules that must be adhered to on the Revel Dashboard before doing the initial menu sync. There are a few Rules when configuring the menu in order to make sure it communicates properly with Lunchbox. Make sure to read through all of these carefully before proceeding to edit or build your menu.

Supported Revel Item Pricing Structures - Price, Price Overrides, Group Combos Pricing & Price *Surcharges (Powered by Lunchbox),

Supported Revel Modifier Pricing Rules - Price, Free Price or Qty or Amount,

Size Pricing Alternative - We recommend using product subcategories by size for products with modifiers grouped by the corresponding size with prices set per ingredient.

(Example: 1/2 Sandwich Spreads have Modifiers applied 1/2 Sandwich Items and Full Sandwich Spreads Modifiers applied to a Full Sandwich.)

Note: If you want size based menu items to be listed as a single item notify your project manager and they will create a dev escalation.

It is important that menu images be uploaded in the proper format. If images aren’t uploaded properly, it can cause resolution problems, scaling issues, and delayed image loading times. Please follow these guidelines carefully:

Menu Item Images

Size: 1280x517px; landscape (16:9) ratio
File: JPG recommended or PNG
160kb or smaller

Menu Modifier Images

Size: 100x100px; square (1:1) ratio
File: PNG
160kb or smaller

Make sure all Menus that need to be available for Online Ordering are set to…

Application Type - Mode

Mode/Station - Online

Cloning Menu Products - Cloning does not make a copy of the modifier classes or modifiers within with product. It will apply the same exact modifier classes and modifiers.

Note: Cloned products within the same location must have different barcodes. Example Happy Hour Wine Item vs Non Happy Hour Wine Item

Copying Menu Modifiers to Other Products - This will copy modifier settings to other products. This is the quickest way to apply the same modifier classes to other products.

All Categories/Menus that need to live on Lunchbox should be added to one Custom Menu Grouping On Revel.

Note: These barcodes cannot be updated in Revel once an item has been imported. When building your menu between locations it is important to make sure that like product bar codes match across restaurants. Baked Potato at Location A must have the same bar code as Baked Potato at Location B.

Make sure your menu is finalized in Revel before pulling the initial sync following all of the aforementioned rules and you should be all set to go and ready to sync!
