Apply a Shared Prep Station to a Shared Menu
If your restaurant group uses shared or Master-level prep stations, you will only be able to see and apply the Master-level prep station, not the location-specific version. This is true for both Advanced Properties and within Edit Menus.
To learn more, see Manage Prep Stations With Toast Multilocation Management.
Note: If you’re viewing only one location in the user interface (UI), or the menu information has a version for a specific location, the top restaurant groups prep stations will still be the only options to choose from.
Apply a Shared Prep Station via a Kitchen Display Screen
Unlike when prep stations are applied to the menu, when prep stations are applied via the KDS, the location-specific version(s) will be visible for you to select. This is why it is important to clearly label any location-specific prep stations you create so you can ensure the right prep stations are visible at the correct locations.
For more information on the KDS basics and setup, please see:
Apply a Shared Prep Station to an Item Routed to a Specific Prep Station
Item routing allows you to apply either the shared or Master-level prep station, or location-specific versions in both the Reroute From and the Reroute To sections.
