Link Store (catering store): set up and manage

L
Written by Lucien Hopkinson

What this is for

A Link Store is a second online store, often used for catering, with its own settings, hours, look, payments and blockout dates. Most settings can be copied from your main online store.

Before you start

  • A Link Store has been created for you (see Link Stores).

  • You're signed in to the Nomni Console at app.abacus.co with a login that can see this page. If it's missing from your menu, ask your account owner to check your role.

Set up the Link Store

  1. Go to POS > Online Store > Link Store Configuration. The settings match Online Store Configuration. Click Save.

  2. Go to Online Store > Catering Order Setting to set Pre-order, Same-day pre-order and Future Day Cut Off Times.

  3. Go to Online Ordering > Catering Opening Hours, set start and end times for each day, and click Save.

  4. Go to Online Ordering > Catering Theme Customisation to set colours and images, then Save.

  5. Go to Online Ordering > Catering Payment Setup to connect Stripe (see Stripe payments for online ordering).

  6. Go to Online Ordering > Link Store Blockout Dates and click Add Blockout Date for days you can't take catering orders.

Tips

  • On your main store pages, the Link Store button copies settings, theme or Stripe setup to the Link Store using its Encrypted ID.

Common problems

  • "You cannot save Blockout Dates because this store is not configured as a catering store."

    Switch to the Link Store first.

  • "Validation failed: Start time must be earlier than end time."

    Fix the times for that day.
