    Aloha chit question: associating two separate chits

    Say you ring in a order on Aloha and send the order to the kitchen, but the order has both hot kitchen items and cold kitchen items, which splits the chit into two chits for the kitchen, but they all need to come out at the same time. Is there a way to associate two separate chits so the kitchen...

    Aloha: How to disable "Term 3 offline" error message

    So Term 3 has been gone for about 2 years now, but since it's still configured in Aloha, we get "Term 3 Offline" error message popping up everytime. We do plan to get a new terminal, but not anytime soon, so it would be nice to disable the error message but not delete the terminal itself. Any...

    Hey guys, We are about to be switching from DSL to cable soon at our location, and know we are going to run into some network downtime while the cable guys do the installation.

    Hey guys, So I have a Aloha EDC credit card transaction report that is almost a 1000 pages long and need it saved because I am hunting down a particular transaction.

    Can Aloha POS BOH and/or FOH be run in a virtual machine?

    Hi guys, I have two Epsom thermal printers that work just fine when I plug them into one of my Aloha POS terminals. The only problem is, since I bought these from a restaurant that went under, the old logo from the other restaurant is still showing up. I asked my Aloha dealer how to do it and He...

    Aloha ecard question

    Hi, I am looking into doing magnetic gift cards for Aloha because I am sick of having to balance out the gift cards at the end of the night. Is Aloha eCard the only way to go?

    Aloha: modifier screenflow question

    Aloha has an "exempt bartenders from modifier screenflow" function, which in my bar would be very useful except for the fact that when it's activated, the cocktail waitresses are also exempted. Obviously the bartenders don't need the screenflow as much as the cocktail waitresses, because a...
