Groups / Categories
Revo XEF organises information into three levels: groups, categories, and products. By tapping on a group, you navigate through its categories, and when selecting a category, its products are displayed.
In the example, the group is "Menu", the category is "Sweets", and all the products in this category are displayed.
-
Top items: The top items automatically display the 16 best-selling products and are regularly updated.
You can disable the top items or show favourites in the app preferences.
Products
When selecting a category, you’ll see its products, which can have different types:
- Standard products: Standard product type.
- Weight: If your business sells products by weight, they can be connected to the scales to automatically calculate the exact weight and price.
- Containers: These are folders used to display similar products. For example, if you have many juices, they could be organised into a container under the "Drinks" group and "Soft Drinks" category, with a container called "Juices" to group all the varieties like orange, pineapple, peach, strawberry, etc.
- Sales format: Products sold in different formats. For example, a wine that is sold by the bottle and by the glass.
- Tickets: Create tickets for special events or if your business needs to sell entry tickets.
- Kits: These pre-select all the products that make up a set and automatically add them to the order. For example, a tasting menu.
- Shortcut: Create a shortcut to products from other categories, avoiding duplication.
- Gift cards: Another product type you can use is gift cards, allowing you to reward loyal customers or manage prepaid amounts efficiently. You can also use this great feature if, for example, someone wants to gift an experience at your venue.
- Menus: Due to the complexity and large number of products a menu can contain, Revo XEF has created an ideal way to manage them.
- Minimum spend: Revo XEF has a product to ease the management of prepayments.
Actions on Products
In this section, you can perform two interesting actions on products:
-
Add quantity: Instead of tapping on the product, press and hold to bring up a screen where you can input the desired quantity. For example, if you want to add 6 soft drinks, press and hold, and select 6 from the list.
-
Product info screen: Tap with two fingers on the product to bring up the product preview screen. Here you can see information added in the product info field (back-office), price, rates, allergens, etc.
