In the Upsell Group list, you can associate a main group with an appropriate upsell group. When a server orders items in the main group, the website will apply the rules set in the upsell group.

In the Start Time and End Time boxes, you can set the time range within each day that the items in the main group are available for delivery service in the Catering website. When servers order items in this menu group, the website will only display controls for carryout service within the time range you set here. By setting a start time and end time, you set the time range during each selected day that the items in the menu groups are available for delivery service.

Delivery Override Menu & Hours: This area includes controls to make changes to availability of delivery service during specified dates and times, regardless of default delivery hours. This allows merchants to easily change their delivery availability, both on short notice due to special circumstances, and in advance for scheduled closures. For example, if a merchant will be closed on New Year’s Day, they can make the menu unavailable for that date in advance using the settings in the Delivery Override Menu & Hours area.

If you click Add a date, the program will display a calendar window, allowing you to select a single date. If you select a date, the program will make delivery service on that date, even if it falls on a day of the week when delivery service is usually not available. You can add multiple dates to an override set.
