Optional Modifiers
Optional Modifiers™
According to the client’s request, the server has the ability to modify any aspect of an item (ingredient, cooking time, special instructions, etc.) by simply activating the optional modifier button. Once activated, the server can then select various actions from the Modifier Control window in combination with the available ingredients from the associated Modifiers window.
To further simplify your menu definitions, you only need to create an ingredient in the Modifiers window one time, no matter how many price levels are required. This means that you can set the extra and replacement values differently for each price level on the same item.
