Set up and manage Modifiers

Learn how to create and manage Modifiers to menu Items on the Eats365 POS or on the Merchant Portal.

Modifiers allow you to use preset options to modify your menu Items. Examples of Modifiers you can add to your Items include item sizes, add-ons, drink options, and more.

In this article, you’ll learn about the different types of Modifiers that are available in the Eats365 POS, as well as how to create and manage Modifiers.

Types of Modifiers

There are two types of Modifiers that are available in the Eats365 POS:

Single Choice Modifier
Multiple Select Modifier

Single Choice Modifier

Single Choice Modifiers are used if you want to create a preset of commonly used options such as drink and meal sizes. For example, if your restaurant offers options for different meal sizes, you can then create a Single Choice Modifier for meal sizes.

Tip: You can also set a default option for your Item.

Multiple Select Modifier

Multiple Select Modifiers are used if you want to create multi-selectable options for your Items. This Modifier is often used on Items that can be customized such as drink options, toppings, etc.

Add Modifiers

Note: You can only add a Modifier to a Single Item. For Combo Items, the Modifier appears automatically when you add a Single Item to the Combo option.
