The planning, creating, editing, distributing and loading of a menu is always a major effort for any organization that has multiple restaurants. This product allows for all of these functions to be performed at a designated central location and distributed through SENDERO to PASEO to the POS terminals on a selected effective date. No more making floppy disk copies and running from store to store all night trying to hit a deadline. MME allows you to define a master menu and groups of regional or market menus. You group stores into menu markets and maintain a minimal number of menus to support large numbers of stores. Menu pricing can be done in such a way that the market prices are based on the master menu pricing, but each menu item can have a price offset relative to the master price. Price changes to the master menu can then ripple through to the markets. Therefore, minor editing in one place can effect changes in many stores or markets.
