Need a solution
« on: February 26, 2013, 10:32:21 am »
I have been trying to find a solution for this issue below.

Course1  is $6
Course2 is $15
Course3 is $22

Course1 = 1 x Starter
Course2 = 1 x Starter + 1 x Main
Course3 = 1 x Starter + 1 x Main + 1 x Dessert

We don’t know what the customer is going to choose to eat.
1.   He can order only one starter which is $6
2.   He can order 1 x Starter + 1 x Main which is $15
3.   He can order 1 x Starter + 1 x Main + 1 x Dessert which is $22
4.   He can order 1 x Main + 1 x Desert which is $15
5.   He can order 1 x Starter + 1 x Desert which is $15

On the bill and receipt customer only will see Course name (1,2,3) and price nothing else.

Any solutions are welcomed

Thank you

Hello toni,
How do you expect to use this? Do you have Course 1, Course 2 products? Or do need separate buttons for them?
I'm trying to undestand waiter operation.

Waiter operation is:

Scenario 1
1.Customer orders a starter and tells the waiter that will decide later for Main and Desert
2.Customer asks for the bill
3.Customer has to pay Course 1 price which is $6

Scenario 2
1.Customer orders a starter and tells the waiter that will decide later for Main and Dessert
2.Customer orders a main
3.Customer asks for the bill
4.Customer has to pay Course 2 price which is $15

Scenario 3
1.Customer orders a starter and tells the waiter that will decide later for Main and Dessert
2.Customer orders a main
3.Customer orders a dessert
4.Customer asks for the bill
5.Customer has to pay Course 3 price which is $22

Scenario 4
1.Customer orders a starter and tells the waiter that will decide later for Main and Dessert
2.Customer orders a dessert
3.Customer asks for the bill
4.Customer has to pay Course 2 price which is $15

I have Starter category and starter products linked to that category
I have Main category and main products linked to that category
I have Dessert category and dessert products linked to that category

Price and course are developed as the customer  place an order

Thank you

toni thank you for the details. I don't think this printing logic is possible on V2. It might be possible with V3 scripting feature but it is hard to determine courses on multiple customer cases. For example what will happen if two people orders by scenerio 2 and 4 on the same ticket?

Thank you very much for your answers. I know my issue is quite complicated.  I believe that SambaPos is going to be one of the best software in this field.

But I really wonder your idea about this :) Sometimes complicated looking things leads to wonderful features.
