Sorry, didn't see these replies. But I just wanted to add, that at our busy bar, the manager's IDs were passworded. Actually, I assume they were passworded. I do not that for certain functions, the managers had a mechanism to go in a delete items or change price/add discounts etc. I'm not sure of what scenario you could commonly avoid by passwording the server ID. Maybe messing around with other server's checks happens at other restaurants (but then I assume they have a slew of other problems.)

We did however have situations where I would need to enter alternate server IDs for different things. What comes to mind is that we had an ID for bar comps so that we could keep track of inventory.

Perhaps discoverability makes sense in certain restaurant scenarios. At our sushi restaurant/bar, I don't know that I ever had to "discover" something?
