Full Service: Coursing Configuration

You can configure products to specific courses in your Manager Dashboard.

To begin configuring your courses, have GoTab enable coursing for your location. Navigate to Location Settings > Full Service, then press +Add Course

Course Name: Name your course (Appetizers, Entrees, Desserts, etc.)
Average Time Eating (seconds): Establishes how long the expected consumption time is for guests once the items from this course are delivered
Auto-timed: When turned ON, this will ensure that the course is fired after a calculated amount of time (Previous course hold time + prep time + eating time) - (Current course prep time). When turned OFF, staff will need to manually fire items configured to this course to the kitchen (unless the trigger on fulfill is turned on).
Trigger on fulfill: The course will be triggered to fire after the course ahead of it has been fulfilled.

Note: If both Auto-Timed and Trigger On Fulfill are set to ON, the shorter time will be respected

Once your settings are configured to your liking, press save. To assign products to a default course, press the “manage products” option at the top of the page From here, you can search for a specific category or course.

Category: View all products within a category and select which items should be included in a course.
Choose “Set To” and select which course the selected products should be configured to.
Course: View all items configured to a specific course
Choose “Set To” and select which course the selected products should be configured to.

You can also filter both for category and course at the same time.
