Allergens

Allergen Management is where you build and maintain allergen information for every menu item or product. Each item can be tagged with any of the 14 major allergens, and the results are viewable as an at-a-glance matrix or individual cards. Find it in the sidebar under Production → Allergens. Available if the Allergens module is on for your account.

Adding a menu item

1. Select Add Menu Item in the top-right corner.
2. Enter the Menu Item Name *.
3. Optionally enter a Price and Notes (optional).
4. Under Select Allergens, tap or click each allergen tile that applies. Active allergens are highlighted in amber.
   • If Gluten is ticked, an extra field appears — enter which cereals (e.g. wheat, barley, rye).
   • If Tree Nuts is ticked, enter which nuts (e.g. almonds, cashews, walnuts).
5. A summary at the bottom confirms how many allergens are selected, or confirms none of the 14 apply.
6. Select Add Menu Item to save.

The 14 allergens available are: Celery, Gluten, Crustaceans, Eggs, Fish, Lupin, Milk, Molluscs, Mustard, Tree Nuts, Peanuts, Sesame, Soya, and Sulphites.

Editing or deleting a menu item

• In Matrix view: select a cell or item name to open the Edit Menu Item panel.
• In Cards view: each card’s ⋯ menu offers Edit and Delete options.
• In the Edit Menu Item panel, update the name, price, notes, or allergen selections, then click Save Changes.
• Deleting asks for confirmation; this action cannot be undone.

Switching between Matrix and Cards view

Use the ⋯ overflow menu in the top-right and select Matrix view or Cards view.

• Matrix view (default on desktop) — all menu items as rows, all 14 allergens as columns; ticked cells show which allergens apply.
• Cards view (default on mobile) — each menu item as its own card listing its active allergens.
