# How to Create Restaurant Deals and Combos

**Quick answer:** Open **Combos**, give the deal a name and a fixed price, then add each line as a menu item (with quantity) or as a free-text line like "1/2 Chicken Karahi". The deal sells as one button on the POS and its full contents print on the kitchen ticket.

## What is a deal or combo?

A restaurant deal (combo) is a single item sold at a fixed price that contains several things, for example a family deal with karahi, biryani, kababs, raita, salad, roti and drinks. On the POS it is one button; on the kitchen ticket the full contents print so the kitchen knows exactly what to make.

## How to create a deal (step by step)

1. Open **Combos** and go to *Create Combo / Bundle*.
2. Enter the deal name and the fixed **price**, and pick a category (a "Deals" category keeps them together).
3. Add each line, either:
   - a **menu item** with a quantity, or
   - a **free-text line** typed exactly as on your poster, for example "1/2 Chicken White Karahi" or "4 Regular Drink" (ideal for half portions and drinks that are not separate menu items).
4. Click **Create Combo**. The deal appears on the POS and its lines print on the KOT.

## Worked example: a family deal

You create **"Deal No. 1 (Family Deal)"** at Rs 2,200 with these free-text lines: 1/2 Chicken White Karahi, 1/2 Chicken Biryani, 2 Tikka Boti, 2 Reshmi Kabab, 1 Raita, 1 Salad, 4 Roti, 4 Regular Drink. On the POS it is one button. When sold, the KOT lists every line so the kitchen plates the full deal, and the bill shows Rs 2,200.

## Editing a deal

To change a deal, delete it from the Existing Combos list and create it again with the corrected lines. The free-text box lets you reproduce any printed deal exactly.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can a deal include a half portion that is not on the menu?

Yes. Add it as a free-text line, for example "1/2 Chicken Karahi". It prints on the KOT without needing a separate menu item.

### Does selling a deal reduce stock?

If the deal's component items have recipes, stock is deducted from those recipes when the deal is sold.
