In the case of a restaurant, the selected delivery method will be printed in KOT/BOT in large font as well. User can specify delivery method in the order details popup which appear in saving an order. This is for the user to specify delivery method in order saving so that it would be communicated to kitchen/bar staff in KOT/BOT, for them to choose appropriate packaging if required.
