Duplicate Modifier Group
For this example we are duplicating the Modifier Group “*As A Cocktail” to create identical Modifier Groups with different pricing based on the Liquor prices. Liquor prices here are $4.00 or $5.00 which dictates the *Long Pour price.

1. Create Modifier Groups - one group as the Original, one for the $4 liquors and one for the $5 liquors

Modifier Sorting & Print Priority
The order in which modifiers are added on the FOH are not the way it will send to the kitchen. If you don’t change the settings in the BOH modifiers will always be sent to the kitchen in alphabetical order, no matter how they were entered on the FOH.

Modifier Print Priority1. Select the Modifiers icon from the main BOH screen | |
2. Select the desired modifier from the list on the left hand panel 3. In the General Information section, use the Print Priority field to indicate which position this modifier will print in | |
Suppress Modifiers on Specific Station Types
You can suppress or hide modifier groups on specific station types.
This means that on your Bar Station Type you can ring in menu items without seeing a modifier screen, but on the Server Station Type it will display to allow the server to modify the item.
For this example, you do not need modifiers to show up on the Bar Station Type when ringing in a drink because the Bartender already knows what to mix with the whiskey.
Tip |
---|
For your Server Station Type you would want to always show the modifiers, so you check the Always Force Show Modifiers box in the Station Types Settings.
For the Bar Station Type you would NOT want to show the modifiers, so you DO NOT check the Always Force Show Modifiers box in the Station Types Settings.
