Create or Edit Menu Item Modifiers on Your Flipdish POS
Updated over 4 months ago

This article will explain how to create or edit menu item modifiers on your Point of Sale. Flipdish POS supports an unlimited number of modifiers meaning you can build modifiers within modifiers and customize the order entry flow as you desire.

Ex. A guest orders a green smoothie > staff selects the size > selects additions to the smoothie > selects the addition of protein powder > and selects the type of protein powder.

Modifiers can be nested within other modifiers to create a seamless order entry experience.

Note: There may be some limitations to the number of modifiers supported by third-party marketplaces. If you manage your marketplace menus from Flipdish POS, a separate diluted modifier menu may be required.
