Products overview

Your products are the building blocks to your whole build and configuration. Products always appear within at least one set category within the menu and can have multiple functions.

Products can be one of four different types which allows them to be much more functional and useful across all different areas of the device to cover a broad range of needs.

Products are used as information displays for specific items or areas. These could include  orderable breakfast items or local park information for example. Products can also display imagery, PDF attachments, weblinks and more. 

Products can take on one of four different product types and these will determine how the product functions.

Normal - Normal products are the standard default a product will be set to. Normal products act as orderable items that will enter the cart/basket when selected. These can have set prices and are often seen within orderable menu items such as breakfast or dinner items.

Directory - Directory products will display in an identical way to a normal product however the option to add this product to your basket wont be available. Directory products work as information displays mostly and are commonly used within a guest directory to give information on properties policies etc.

Service Items - Service items work similarly to normal products however, instead of the product being placed into a cart/basket. The product becomes a service and when requested will bypass the cart and go directly to a staff console.

Web Links - Web link products work very similarly to directory products however web link products gain a button which will act as a link to a destination point, which is often an external website.

Products descriptions have the capability to work alongside markdown coding. Markdown allows for some extra functionality within descriptions whilst also adding to the style, design and structure of the product.

Markdown is commonly used to insert images into product descriptions but can also be used to insert line breaks and adjust text styles such as making text bold, italic or a heading.

Please see useful markdown code that can be used in your descriptions;

Insert Line Break - '---'

Insert Image - ''

Heading Text - '## text'

Bold Text - '**text**'

Italic Text - '*text*'
