1. Log into the dashboard.  Go to the upper righthand menu and select Order Type.

2. Select the location.

3. Select Create New underneath the list of existing order types

4. You can create catering pickup and/or delivery order types.  You can have  descriptions explaining any requirements for catering (how far in advance).  You can also set an order fee (ex. delivery fee)  If your catering hours are different than your normal pickup/delivery hours you can create a separate hour set and tie it to the order type here.
