Add several dishes at once from Bulk Upload Dishes when you want a quick grid instead of creating each dish one by one.

How to bulk upload dishes

  1. Open Menu, then Dishes.
  2. Click More dish options.
  3. Choose Upload Bulk Dish. The Bulk Upload Dishes page opens.
Bulk Upload Dishes grid

Bulk Upload Dishes. Fill each row, add more rows if you need them, then save.

Use the columns to organize each new dish:

  • Dish Name - required. Name the dish so you can find it on the Dishes list (for example Mushroom Soup).
  • Price - required. Set the selling price (shown with Rs).
  • Sub Menu - required. Choose which menu collection it belongs to (placeholder Select Submenu).
  • Category - required. Choose the group under that menu (placeholder Select Category).
  • Actions - use + to insert a row below, or the trash icon to remove a row.

Row tools:

  • Add New Row - add one empty row (shortcut shown as ⌘ + /).
  • Add Rows - enter a number, then click Add Rows to add that many rows at once.
  • Reset - clear the grid if you want to start over.
  • Save N Dishes - save the filled rows. The button label shows how many dishes you are saving (for example Save 5 Dishes).

There is no template download on this screen. To upload from a spreadsheet file instead, use Import From Excel under More dish options.

What happens next

The new dishes appear on the Dishes list. Use the Available switch when you need to control whether each dish is orderable.

Keep going with these next steps.
