Per Device Default Order Type

It would be great to have the ability to set the "Order Type" default per device.

For example. The Clover Station in the bar defaults to "Dine-In" while a Clover Flex is used outside for Curbside orders without having the user have to change the order type on the Non-Table Order or the Register App each time an order is done.

This would allow flexiblity to have some Flex Units default to "Curbside" or "Special Event" if they are used for outside catering.

    I agree this should be by device. Our two Station units are either Take Out or Eat In. However, our Mini is always Take Out. Again like the others commenting, most of the time our cashiers remember but when they don't, it becomes very frustrating!

    I have a restaurant with 1. POS in front of the restaurant that ONLY takes "take-out orders", 2. POS in back of the restaurant by phone that takes ONLY "pick-up-orders", and 3. Flex handhelds that takes ONLY "Dine-In" orders.
    Our default is set to "Dine-In" as our flex users needs to be fast. Problem is that our servers and host "forgets" to select the proper order type for Pick-Ups and Take-Outs and the orders are going into the kitchen as dine-in.
    10 minutes later, food comes out of the kitchen on plates and servers ends up tossing the food in garbage and we need to re-make the orders.

    If we can select the default order type by device, this can be prevented 100% of the time so please add this functionality to the devices. We are so razer thin on margin and wasting food that costs 60-70% food+labor 2-3x a day is eating up the tiny profit margin, if any that we have.
