        Order: 1234 
        Waiter: Luke Skywalker 
        Table: 5 
        Diners: 2 
        {Date} 
        ---------------------------------
        STARTERS                            --> Dish order
        ---------------------------------
        1  Goat cheese salad               --> À la carte product
        1  [M] Green Salad                  --> Menu product (M) 
        ---------------------------------
        MAIN COURSES
        ---------------------------------
        1  Filet mignon with foie gras 
            - Medium rare 
        1  [M] Paella  
        ---------------------------------
        DESSERTS
        ---------------------------------
        1  Crème Catalan 
        1  [M] Seasonal fruit 
  

  IMPORTANT: For this option to work, it is essential that the names of the dish orders and the order of the menu dish orders are exactly the same.
  
  In other words, if in dish orders you have 1. DRINKS 2. STARTERS, for menus it should be 1. DRINKS 2. STARTERS.

  Without this option activated, menu and à la carte dishes would appear separately. Very useful for businesses that combine menus with other products.

TAKEAWAY:

IMPORTANT: These options will only work if your app's working system is set to Takeaway POS or Takeaway.

• Print to kitchen when paying: Activate to print kitchen or bar products at the same time when closing an order (paying).

• Print waiting ticket: With this option activated, a waiting ticket with sequential numbering will be printed for the customer, allowing them to be called by their waiting number.

  IMPORTANT: If you want to use this option, it's essential that the printer has multi-session enabled to print the invoice and the waiting ticket together. Otherwise, you won't be able to use it because the printer won't be able to print two consecutive tickets.

• Check stock: Activate to not accept Revo orders ONLY with out-of-stock products.
