# Restaurant QR Code for Paymasters

> Generate a restaurant QR code for paymasters to enable meal pickups linked to addon packages, using a PM prefix to distinguish them from reservation QRs.

Generate a restaurant QR code for paymasters to enable meal pickups linked to addon packages.

### **Business Value**

* **Expands Meal Pickup:** Enable charging and meal pickups for non-reservation guests (e.g., spa, events).
* **Prevents Errors:** Stops users from generating a QR unless the paymaster has packages with meals, reducing guest confusion.
* **Operational Clarity:** QR codes for paymasters are differentiated from reservation QR codes, making control and reporting easier.

### **Actual Use Cases**

* **Spa or Event Guests:** Issue a QR code for a paymaster handling a spa or banquet event so guests can claim prepaid meals at the restaurant.
* **Walk-in Package Sales:** Sell and manage meal packages for guests not tied to a room reservation, and allow easy pickup through QR scanning.
* **Accounting Differentiation:** Finance can easily distinguish between meal redemptions linked to reservations (RS code) and paymasters (PM code).

### **Technical Know-How**

* **How to Generate the QR Code:**

  1. Go to **Front Office → Paymaster → Selected Paymaster**.
  2. Click **Restaurant QR Code**.
  3. **If no addon package with a meal** is linked, an error message will display:
     *"No available packages with meals to generate QR code."*
  4. **If packages with meals exist:**

     * QR code is generated for the **total number of packages** with meals.
     * The generated QR code will use the **PM** prefix to distinguish it from reservation QRs (**RS**).
  5. QR can be printed or scanned at the restaurant, just like for reservations.

* **QR Code Behavior:**

  * Paymaster QRs **cannot be used** unless at least one package with a meal exists.
  * QR code tracks the total eligible meals based on all applicable packages.
  * **Security:** QR model and code structure for paymasters is unique and cannot be mixed with reservation QRs.
