About

Nomni POS allows you to implement dietary requirement filters across a variety of ordering platforms, including:

  • Table Ordering App

  • Self-Ordering Kiosk

  • Mobile App

  • Web Online Ordering

These filters enable customers to customize their menu view based on dietary preferences or restrictions, ensuring they only see products that meet their needs. For instance, a customer might be vegetarian, enjoy spicy food, but need to avoid garlic.


Adding Dietary Requirements to Products

To flag products with specific dietary requirements:

  1. Go to the Product Details of the item you wish to update.

2. Navigate to the Advanced tab.

3. Scroll down to find options for Product Intolerance, Product Allergy, and Product Preference.

You can select one or more options from the following categories:


Product Allergy

  • Gluten Free

  • No Eggs

  • No Fish

  • No Milk

  • No Peanut

  • No Sesame

  • No Shellfish

  • No Soy

  • No Tree Nuts

  • No Wheat


Product Intolerance

  • No Garlic

  • No Onions

  • Lactose Free


Product Preference

  • No Added Sugar

  • No MSG

  • No Pork

  • Pescatarian

  • Spicy

  • Vegan

  • Vegetarian

After selecting the appropriate dietary options, click Save.

4. Repeat this process for other products as needed.

If you're an expert with CSV files, you can alternatively apply these dietary filters to multiple products with your "Products" CSV import.

NOTE: You must include the text exactly as it is written above for the CSV import to work (e.g. "No Added Sugar" instead of "no sugar"). Separate multiple options with a semi-colon (;).


Syncing Dietary Requirements Across Platforms
