Secondary Classes are a way to organize Units in a different way than the menu class. This will allow for Unit combinations.

This builds a pop up option to allow you input the:

• Secondary Class Name: The name of the Secondary Class *Required
• Option Required: Is this option Required *Recommended
• Remove: Remove this option

Unit Additions are items that go onto Units. Such as:

• Pickles
• Carrots
• Onion
• Ketchup

After Additions are created you can append them by their class name, or individually indiviuals to the Unit.

• Addition Name: The name of the Addition
• Default: Is this item already on the Unit when ordering.
• Cost on Enable: The cost of the Addition when added to the Unit. Note: This will default to 0 if "Default" is enabled.
• Cost on Extra: The cost of the Addition when the user selects "Extra"
• Remove: Remove the Addition from the unit

Clicking the Save button will commence a server update of your menu.

When saving the data in the Build a Unit pane, if you've just created the Unit and the save was successful, you will see the save Icon on the lower right, followed by the pane becoming empty.

When editing a Unit, clicking save will notify you that there is an existing Unit with the same Private Name, clicking ok will allow you to overwrite that Unit with the data in the right hand pane you will then see the save Icon on the lower right, followed by the pane becoming empty.



On the left hand pane, you will see a menu labeled as Units: Your Menu Items
This section of the editor holds your menu items so you can edit them after they have been created. Clicking on the item will you send it to the right pane for you to edit. It also hold the delete button for you to delete the item off of your menu.

Additions are items that go onto Units. For example if you had a burger Unit, you would have pickles, lettuce and ketchup as Additions. Additions allow users to select 4 levels: None, Little, Normal, and Extra.


Similarly to the Units Class, this allows you to add Additions by class instead of individually.
For Example:

• Ketchup
• Mustard
• Mayo

Could all be apart of the "Condiment" Class Name
It is important to note that when building Additions setting a value for "Cost" will only apply to Units that have the default option to off. For example: If you had a burger Unit that does not come with Avacado but it is an avalible option to add on, when a customer sets the value above "None" will apply the cost of this Addition to the total. Following, selecting extra will apply the Cost On Extra Value.

Please Note both the Cost and Cost on Extra will not be added if a user selects Extra.

When building a Unit such as a burger it is important to be efficient and create all Additions before we create the Unit. Such as Toppings, Condiments, and anything else you are going to be applying to the burger.

Another rule to being efficient and creating classes is to make sure to set Addition Class Names when and where ever possible. This helps during the next step. For this example we will create Additions for our burger. In the Build an Addition editor of the Additions: Unit addativies/toppings menu, create the following. NOTE: A Few Additions have already been pre created for each account. Delete any Additions your store does not use.

Addition
Name:	Bacon
Class Name:	Meats
Cost:	0.50
Cost on Extra:	1.25

Once you have created all the Additions we will go on to create the burger Unit.

In the Build a Unit editor of the Units: Menu Choices menu, we can start to apply information to the Unit

Public Name	Cheese Burger
Private Name	cheese_burger
Class Name	Burgers
Secondary Class Name
Cost	8.00
Description	Request Link Test burger
Upload An Image

Once you've filled the basic information out, scroll down to Unit Additions and click on the "Add Multiple Additions By Class" text box. Type in 'Condiments' and click the Add Button. You should now see a list of newly appended Additions. Go down the list and Default enable the following items.

• American Cheese
• Yellow Mustard
• Ketchup

Now scroll back up to the "Search Addition By Name" and Type in "Bacon" click the Add Button. Do not Default enable the newly appended Bacon Addition. And now click the Save Unit button go back to the main menu and click your store under the "Manage a Store Menu", click "Test Store Menu" to load the preview store of your menu

In this Example we will go over building a Combo Meals that has 3 options where a customer can get a choice of burger, side, and drink. You would start by creating drink Units. - Example:

• Coca-Cola
• Pepsi
• Sprite

You would set the Secondary Class for each Unit to "Lunch Combo Drinks"

To continue, you would create your side Units. - Example:

• French Fries
• Mashed Potatoes
• Carrots

You would set the Secondary Class for each Unit to "Lunch Combo Sides" *If you offer to sell sides separately you can also add the main Class as "Sides" so they are grouped on the menu in a "Sides" Category

Afterwards, you would create your burger Units. - Example:

• Cheese Burger
• Double Melt
• Avacado Burger

You would set the Secondary Class for each Unit to "Lunch Combo Burgers" *If you offer to sell Burgers separately you can also add the main Class as "Burgers" so they are grouped on the menu in a "Burgers" Category

Finally, when all your possible combinations are created, you finish by creating the "holder" Unit.
You would complete the basic Unit Properties - Example Inputs:

• Public Name: Lunch Combo
• Private Name: lunch_combo
• Class Name: Meals
• Secondary Class Name: none NOTE: Combinations can not be inside of Combinations.
• Cost: $7.00 NOTE: This cost will override the cost of all options attached.
• Description: Choice Burger, Medium Drink, and a Side
• Upload An Image: A example picture of this combo.

And Now to add the Secondary Class Options for each of the Secondary Classes we created:

• Lunch Combo Drinks
• Lunch Combo Sides
• Lunch Combo Burgers

Click the click the Add Option button, and enter the Secondary Classes listed above in the input box. If the option is Required, make sure to check the Required Slider.
That's all were done! Make sure to click the Save Unit button!
