Overview
If you sell add-ons with a particular item then you should use Modifiers to link them items. Some examples of where you would use Modifiers:
- Restaurant: Extra's when selling coffee. E.g. charging extra for Soya milk.
- Restaurant: Additional burger or pizza toppings.
- Retail: An extended warranty/insurance policy for an item
- Retail: An additional charge for printing a name on a sports shirt
When you sell an item with linked modifiers the cashier will be presented with a list of linked modifiers. Tapping the required modifiers will add them to the sale.
Creating a Modifier
As an example, we will create a burger with customisable toppings. A perfect scenario for using modifiers! First, create the following items:
- Item: Burger
- Option: Single
- Option: Double
- Item: Burger Toppings
- Option: Cheese
- Option: Bacon
- Option: Mushrooms
Please see our guide on creating Itemsguide for the steps required to create these items.Once you have setup the required items we can link them together using modifiers.
- Navigate to: Items -> Burger.
- Open the Modifiers tab.
- Click the "+ Link New Item" button.
- Select the "Burger Toppings" item from the drop down.
- Click the "Link Item" button.
- Switch on the toggles for the modifier options you wish to link to this item.
- Your modifiers are now successfully linked.
Deleting a Modifier
- Navigate to: Items.
- Select the item you wish to remove the modifier from.
- Open the Modifiers tab.
- Switch off the toggle(s) for the options you not longer wish to be linked.
