Modifiers exist to allow a server or cashier to provide specific instructions for how to prepare an item. This includes special requests, such as 'Lite Mustard' and 'No Mayo,' a requirement such as meat temperature, 'Steak - Medium Rare,' or an option on a side, such as 'Salad - Ranch Dressing.' Modifiers also allow you to charge extra for additional ingredients, such as 'Add Bacon.' Modifier groups enable you to easily locate modifier items on the Point-of-Sale (POS).

Effective with POS v6.16, we introduced a new user interface that allows you to select the menu and modifier items on the same screen reducing multiple screen transitions. The available modifiers for the selected item appear on the right-side panel, making order entry more efficient and increasing speed of service.

• Log in to the POS and start a new guest check. The new modifier panel appears on the right.

  

• Add items to the guest check. As you add items, the modifiers assigned to that item populate in the modifier panel on the right.

  

• Tap an item with required modifiers in the order ticket window. The selected item name appears at the top of the modifier panel with all assigned modifier groups and their respective modifiers listed below. If there are any required modifiers, this is indicated under the item name. A red dot appears next to the modifier group name. As you scroll down the list of modifier groups, a red badge appears in a bullet next to the modifier group name.

• Swipe left on the listed modifiers groups at the top of the page to navigate to a specific modifier group or scroll down the list of modifier groups and make your selections.
