Meal Set

Who this is for

Admins who build combo or set-meal selection flows.

Before you start

  • Confirm the correct brand.
  • Make sure the component items already exist in Menu Items.
  • Decide how many selection groups the combo needs before you start.

Open this page

Open Menu Management -> Meal Set.

What this page controls

Meal Set creates grouped item choices for combo-style selling flows.

Use it when one parent item should force or allow the customer to choose from item groups such as:

  • one main
  • one side
  • one drink

Meal Sets

Main sections

Meal set groups

Create one group for each required choice in the combo.

Typical settings include:

  • group name
  • minimum selection
  • maximum selection

Group contents

After creating the group, add the actual menu items that belong to that choice group.

Parent item linkage

The meal set groups do not work by themselves. They must be linked back to a parent set item in Menu Items.

Copy a group

Use the row-level copy action when you need a similar meal set without rebuilding every choice group from scratch.

  • The row action opens the copy modal for the selected group.
  • The source group stays selected for you in the modal.
  • There is no separate copy button in the page header.
  • Turn on Beast Mode when you need to create more than one target group in the same save.
  • In Beast Mode, you can set Max Selection, Min Selection, Display in POS, and Display in Online Ordering for each copied row.
  • The copy action also brings over the linked set items and shop pricing details.

Steps

  1. Open Menu Management -> Meal Set.
  2. Create the required choice groups.
  3. Set the minimum and maximum selection rules for each group.
  4. Save the groups.
  5. Open the row action for the group you want to copy.
  6. Review the source group at the top of the copy modal.
  7. Turn on Beast Mode if you need multiple target rows.
  8. Enter the copied group details and shared display settings.
  9. Save the copy.
  10. Add the relevant menu items to each group.
  11. Set override prices where an item should add an upcharge.
  12. Open the parent set item in Menu Items.
  13. Attach the meal set groups to the parent item.
  14. Save the parent item.

What changes after you save

These changes affect how the combo item prompts for choices during ordering. The row-level copy workflow also creates new groups with the linked set items and shop pricing details already copied over.

How to check your change

  1. Reopen the meal set groups and confirm the correct items are attached.
  2. Reopen the parent set item and confirm the meal set groups are linked.
  3. Test the combo ordering flow to confirm the expected selection wizard appears.

If something goes wrong

  • Confirm the component items were added to the correct groups.
  • Check whether the parent set item was linked to the groups.
  • Review selection limits if the flow is too strict or too open.

When to ask owner/admin

  • The combo affects live pricing or high-volume selling flows.
  • You are unsure whether the structure should use meal sets, modifiers, or both.
