Waiter Screen / Ready Orders

V5 Question
13

This is my original idea (even before the Duplicate idea) simply using the GQL addTask() mutation in Script to copy the all the Task details to a new Task Type.

I was having trouble getting this work last night, but today it is working!

I think it might be because yesterday I was using {CALL:X} to execute the function, but today I am using the Execute Script Action.

##SCRIPT

:warning: This script looks the same as previously posted, but one of the functions has been updated, so you need to update the Script functions. Specifically, the addTask() function has been updated.

##NOTES:

This function call:

tasks.addTask('KD Waiter - Food','','XXXXX READY XXXXX','[:CommandValue]','#55007700','KD Task GUI - Food')

Has 6 parameters:

addTask(taskTypeNew,taskName,content,identifier,color,taskTypeOld)

Maps out like this:

taskTypeNew = 'KD Waiter - Food' // our new Task Type for the Waiter Display
taskName    = '' // optional, when left blank, it will use the same taskName as the KD Food Task
content     = 'XXXXX READY XXXXX' // optional, content will be appended to the Order on the Waiter Task Card
identifier  = '[:CommandValue]' // leave this alone, the value is passed as the [Id] for the KD Food Task Widget
color       = '#55007700' // medium Green color
taskTypeOld = 'KD Task GUI - Food' // the original KD Food Task Type (ie. 'FoodDisplayTask')
