Modifiers |
There are 2 options within this category: Show Default Modifiers: Disabling this feature suppresses modifier options on the order for the default options. E.g.: Burger comes with a Burger Modifier containing Pickles, Tomato, and Lettuce selected by default. With this setting disabled, the default selections will not be printed unless the user explicitly removes one in which case the app will reflect 'NO <modifier option>'. Display Modifier Name: When enabled, displays the name of a modifier group above the selected options when an item with modifiers is added to an order. I.e.: A coffee product with a modifier for milk might also display "Coffee Modifiers" above "Soy Milk" with this setting enabled rather than simply 'Coffee product' and 'Soy Milk' underneath. |
