Basics

Modifiers can be managed in the Inventory settings (Inventory - Modifiers). In the settings on the Modifiers tab you can see all the existing modifiers, reorder them or add new ones. 

There are three sections modifiers can belong to: Common, Individual and Unused modifiers. Common modifiers are those modifiers which are linked to more than one item. Individual modifiers are linked only to one of the items and unused modifiers are not linked to any of the items.

Creating modifiers

To create a modifier press the “Creating modifier” button. 

On the creating modifier screen you can name the modifier, enable optional settings for it and create options this modifier will contain.

Press “Add Option” and create a new option to the modifier. Several options can be created for one modifier. While on the creating option screen you can give the option a name, set a price for it and set the option as default

If an Option is set as default it will be automatically applied to the item when put in the cart. Default options can be removed manually from the cart if necessary (unless the modifier is Forced)

To delete a modifier/option press the “Remove” button.

Please see an example of a fully configured modifier on the screenshot below:

There is more information on the optional settings for modifiers in the “Optional Settings” section of this manual further below.

For the kiosk version, there is also the option to add images to modifiers. More details about this can be found in the article https://dejavoosystems.atlassian.net/wiki/x/EYB56Q

Linking modifiers to items

Modifiers are linked to an item(s) manually while managing the item.

To attach modifiers to Items, go to the "Items" section. Press “Add New” button

select a modifier(s) from the list (a check mark will appear and the modifier will be moved to the “Enabled” section) or create a new one by pressing the “Create” button (to remove a modifier press the selected one again), press “Conirm”.

After modifiers are linked to an item they will be available to be applied to the items in the cart or they will be applied automatically depending on your settings.

To apply a modifier press the item settings button

“Modifiers and Taxes” screen will open. Select a modifier(s) you need and then press “Save“.

Optional Settings

There are several optional settings you can use while creating and managing modifiers. You can use multiple settings at once.

1. Multiselect setting

The Multiselect setting allows you to select several options of a modifier. The total price will change in accordance the the number and the price of the selected options .

2. Forced setting

When enabled the Forced setting will force you to select an Option of the modifier when putting the item it applied to in the cart. When putting such an item in the cart the “Modifiers and Taxes” sсreen will open with a warning massage next to the Modifier with this setting enabled.

The screen will not open if any of options has the “Default” setting enabled (more information on Default setting is down below). If this is the case the item will be added to the cart with the default option(s) applied. It will also not allow you to remove the modifier completely from the item in the cart in the Modifiers and Taxes screen.
