What is a Jump Screen?
Jump Screens automatically redirect employees to a specific screen within the POS system when they select certain menu items or actions. These screens are triggered based on the selected item or workflow and help employees quickly access the next step in the ordering process, such as selecting modifiers, add-ons, or preparation options.
An example of Jump Screens is ordering an item from the menu with customization options. By following this Jump Screen process, employees can make selections efficiently.
How Jump Screen Works in Restaurant POS Systems?
When an employee clicks a customizable menu item, the POS screen automatically switches to a screen that lists all relevant options, eliminating the need to manually search for modifiers or related products.
For example:
if a server selects a pizza from the POS menu, the Jump Screen may display options such as:
- Type of crust
- Pizza size
- Toppings
- Extra cheese or sauces
When all selections are complete, the POS returns to the main order screen with the customized item added to the check. Jump Screens improve order accuracy, speed up service, and simplify the POS interface for employees.
