How to configure catering for meeting rooms?
The catering feature allows users to add drinks, snacks, and meals to ad hoc meeting room bookings. Configuration is managed centrally via the Control Centre.
Availability: Business plan, Meeting Room plan, and free 30-day Business trial
Default state: Disabled
Step 1: Enable catering
- Go to the Control Centre
- Open the Catering tab
- Toggle the feature on
Step 2: Add caterers
Set who should receive catering requests. You can add up to 5 caterer email addresses per premise if needed or use the same email address(es) for all locations.
Caterers automatically receive an email when a catering order is created or updated, or when a meeting (and its catering) is cancelled. Each email includes meeting time, meeting room location, ordered items and quantities.
Step 3: Set up catering options
Define what users can order. Catering options are grouped into: drinks, snacks, meals. For each category, you can add predefined items that users can select from during the booking process. Free-text input from users is not supported, ensuring a consistent ordering experience. You can add up to 20 options per category.
Note: If no catering options are configured, the catering feature will not be shown in the booking interface.
