Clone A Profile

This outlines How To Clone A Profile using a Default Configuration in OrderAway.

The concept of cloning is essentially to facilitate the configuring of multiple OrderAway Profiles in the same Location with the same configuration. Making it easier for Venues to configure multiple Profiles.

What Is Required? ▲ ▼

The Default Config must be configured before a Profile can be cloned.
The Profile must enabled before a Profile can be cloned. Refer to How To Enable A Profile for more information.

Once a Default Configuration has been configured, it can then be cloned to the other Profiles listed for the same Location. To do this:

Access the Profiles menu. Refer to How To Access The Configuration Tabs for more information.
Ensure the Profile to be configured is enabled. Refer to How To Enable A Profile for more information.
Select the Name of a Profile that has been enabled.
The Profile and it's Configuration Tabs will be displayed.

Configuration tabs for the selected Profile

Select the Clone From Default Profile button.

Notes...

An OrderAway Profile can be cloned from the Default Config regardless of the Type of Profile it is. However, it may need further tweaking post cloning to ensure that it is configured correctly.

At the confirmation prompt, select Confirm.
On completion a Settings Cloned response will appear briefly in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
Select each of the tabs (POS, Appearance, Service, etc) and configure each to ensure the Profile is appropriately configured for it's intended use in the Venue.
DO NOT forget to select the SAVE button to ensure all changes are saved.
The above process can be repeated for the remaining Profiles in the same Location.

Notes...

Any previous settings configured for the selected Profile will be overwritten by the cloning process.
