The dining options report gives you insight into income generated by each of your defined dining options (dine in, take out, and so on), helping you answer questions such as, "What percentage of my business is dine-in vs. takeout?" For the timeframe and locations you select, this report includes a row for each dining option that generated one or more checks.
Note |
In cases where an item on a check has a different dining option than the check does, the system applies the dining option of the check to all of the items on that check. |
For more information about dining options, see Dining Options.
