Suite Catering: Getting Started
Suite Catering is a venue-focused Xenial Cloud service accessed through Xenial Portal. Suite Catering syncs with Xenial Cloud services such as Data Management, to provide the most up-to-date information such as Item Inventory and Unit Costs.
To start using Suite Catering, the venue portal administrator must add and enable the service at the company level and then add and enable the service at the site level.
The venue portal administrator must then assign User Roles to Venue Staff, and also assign Permissions to those roles.
This process is outlined in the table. Note that each step is its own process.
Step | Process | Description |
|---|---|---|
1 | Add Service at the company level | add Suite Catering at the company level |
2 | Subscribe to service at the company level | enable the service at the company level |
3 | Add Service at the site level | add Suite Catering at the site level |
4 | Subscribe to service at the site level | enable Suite Catering at the site level |
5 | Assign or Create a User Role | To grant venue staff access to the Suite Catering admin features, administrators must assign the required permissions to relevant user roles, and then add the user role(s) to venue staff users. |
6 | Assign Permissions to a User Role | Grant permissions to access the Suite Catering Admin Portal Options Suite Catering Permissions. |
