💡 Offer guests a seasonal menu and hide it when the season ends. Create a «Summer Menu» category with dishes made from fresh vegetables and fruits, then hide it from the POS in autumn.

- Open Menu → Categories of products and dishes in the management console.
- Click ••• next to the category you need.

The category will not be displayed on the POS but will remain in the admin panel, so you can show it again next season.
Next, create dishes and products to fill in the menu of your location.
