Direct Access Service; Coded Service - Panasonic 5000 Series Operating Instructions Manual

Starting a Guest Check

Direct Access Service

You can have up to two Service keys on your keyboard. They will be labelled to match the
service area, "Bar Service", "Room Service", etc. When you press the Service key, any
special taxes are calculated, and the order is relayed to applicable remote devices,
including kitchen printers or videos.
After you open the guest check and register the items, press the Service key to store the
balance. If your system uses a Slip Printer, place a check in the printer before you press
the Service key.
Note: If you are using kitchen printers or videos, Service relays the orders to their
appropriate destinations. You can recall the order, as needed, to add new items or
make adjustments. See Recalling a Guest Check for this procedure.

Coded Service

To save space on your keyboard, you may have a single Service key that accesses both
service areas. The service areas are assigned a number (1 or 2) that is entered on the
Service key. Use this procedure if your system is set up in this manner.
1. Enter the number (1 or 2) associated with this service.
2. Press SERVICE. If your checks are printed on a slip printer, place the guest check
in the printer before you press SERVICE.
Note: If you press the SERVICE key without entering a number, the transaction is applied
to Service 1.
