Modifiers

A Modifier is a small change to an item — "oat milk", "no onion", "extra shot". Modifiers aren't sold on their own; they tweak an item and can add a price.

Where to find it: Menu → Modifiers

The list shows each modifier's Name, Price, GST, and Print Name.

How modifiers reach the POS

A modifier can be attached to an item in two ways, which behave differently at the till:

  • Directly on the item — the modifier is attached on its own. When the item is rung up the modifier is automatically applied, with no prompt. Use this for variants that are always part of the item (e.g. a "Cafe Latte" that always includes "1 Shot Coffee").
  • Inside a Modifier Group — the modifier is one option in a group. The operator is prompted to choose according to the group's min/max rules (e.g. a "Milk Selection" group with Soy / Oat / Almond — pick one).

Add a modifier

  1. Click Add Modifier.
  2. Fill in the Basic Details:
    Field Required What it's for
    Modifier Name Yes The name staff see
    Alternate Name No A second/language name
    Print Name No Name printed on dockets
    Default Price No The price the modifier adds (leave blank for no charge)
    Cost L1–L5 No Cost per price level, for margin tracking
  3. Set the toggles as needed:
    • GST — whether GST applies.
    • Open Name — let staff rename it at the POS.
    • Open Price — let staff set its price at the POS.
    • Print on Check — whether it appears on the customer receipt.
  4. (Optional) Use Price Sets to give the modifier different prices under different price sets.
  5. Click Save, or Save & Publish to push it live.
