Verify Age

Summary

A guest must be of legal age in order to purchase an alcoholic beverage. NSOE can be configured to require age verification for alcohol purchases. 

Purpose

Age verification requires the server to verify the guest's age before placing an order for an alcoholic beverage. 

Configuration

Verify Age is configured by area and bymenu item. Both settings are required for age verification. 

Area setting 

Set an area to require age verification for menu items that require age verification:

• In ECM, edit site and select Areas tab.
• Select the desired area. 
• Select Verify Age

Menu Item setting

Set a menu item to require age verification before ordering (e.g., alcoholic beverage): 

• Create or edit a menu item
• Select Require Age Verification

(Note: This menu item is named "Require Age Verification" for test purposes only. Actual menu item names will be used in sites.)

    • Note: If server taps OK to dismiss the pop-up and taps the beverage button again, the pop-up will continue to pop up until the server has verified age
