Store Settings

Store Settings section of the Buddi dashboard is designed to help you manage various operational and customer-facing aspects of your menu.

Functions:

Store Hours

• Set and update your store's operating hours. Ensure customers know when your store is open and available for service.

Tax Settings

• Configure the tax rates applicable to your products based on category. This helps ensure accurate tax calculations that are consistent with your POS.

Filter Settings

• This contains the 'Sold Out Filter' function, which allow customers to view sold out products in your online menu and sign up for restock notifications if desired.

In-Store Kiosk: Settings

• Here you can customize the settings for your Tablet App. This includes user interface settings, such as when the shopping session resets and messages that pop up on the screen:
  1. Application Greeting Notification: when a customer first uses the tablet
  2. Custom Checkout Message: after a customer places an order
     
• It also contains the 'Product Comparison' feature, which enhances the shopping experience by allowing customers to compare products.

Curbside Thank You Page Message: This appears after the customer places their order and may contain instructions, such as where to park outside your store or how to notify the store upon arrival. Note: You also have the option to set a custom 'Curbside Order Type' notification for customers in Online Menu: Messages, which will be sent via text or email.
