Overview

Display groups are configured in Lighthouse Business Manager (LBM) and then made available on SkyTab POS. They allow menu items to be organized into groups and subgroups using a hierarchy that is separate from departments.

Once configured, Display Groups appear as a selectable menu area during order entry.

View and Use Display Groups on the POS

1. Log in to SkyTab POS.
2. Open a ticket and enter Order Entry. Tap the Groups tab to view available Display Groups. 
   Note: A job can be configured to default to the Groups menu during order entry. 
   
3. Selecting a Group shows:
   • Any Subgroups under that Group
   • All menu items assigned directly to the Group or a Subgroup
     
4. Selecting a Subgroup narrows the view to items within that Subgroup only.
   
5. Tap a menu item to add it to the order or open its modifiers, then continue processing the ticket as you normally would.
