Step 1: Modifier Group Settings
To create a new modifier group:
- Head to Product Management > Modifier Groups.
- Select [NEW MODIFIER GROUP].
In the New Modifier Group page, first describe the modifier group:
- Modifier Group Name: Enter a name as known throughout Cinchio Back Office.
- Menu Name: Enter the name as known to customers on order platforms using this modifier group.
- Menu Description: Enter additional text to show to customers on order platforms.
Then configuring the group settings:
- Group Minimum: If required, specify the minimum number of modifiers required when customers are presented with this modifier group.
- Group Maximum: If required, specify the maximum number of modifiers allowed when customers are presented with this modifier group.
- Item Maximum: If applicable and required, specify the maximum number of times an individual modifier within this modifier group can be selected.
- Allow Multiple Selection: Enable this if customers can select an individual modifier multiple times.
- Expand By Default: Enable this if the modifier group should be expanded by default on Cinchio Digital Ordering platforms.
Step 2: Modifier Group Products
Now within the modifier group, to add modifiers select [ADD MODIFIER GROUP PRODUCT].
Within the Add Modifier Group Product window:
- Product: Select the product to be used as a modifier.
- Pricing Type: For modifier groups used in menus, select the pricing type as either:
- Menu Item Price: The modifier price will be the same as the products standard menu price.
- Modifier Item Price: The modifier price will be different than the standard product price.
- Override Product Name For Menus: If required, enter a different name for this product that your customers will see on menus. This overrides the Cinchio Back Office product name, and populates by default if the product has a default menu name assigned.
Then select [ADD MODIFIER GROUP PRODUCT].
Repeat to add additional modifier products to the modifier group.
Once all modifier group products are added, if required you can use the arrows on each row to drag-and-drop modifier products into the desired position.
