Connect - Item Attributes

Item Attributes are characteristics that are shared by multiple items within a database. As a method to group and classify items, the user-defined attributes are useful for dietary restrictions, types of food, combos, etc. The Attributes are used to filter the menu on Interact Web and Interact Kiosk.

In order to filter, an Item must have at least one Attribute assigned to it and users can filter with multiple Attributes.

Examples of Attributes are Gluten Free, Dairy Free, 0-500 Calories, etc.

Notes: Interact Kiosks must be using version 2.1.0 or higher.
