Modifiers In Online Store and OpenTab

Modifiers In Online Store and OpenTab

What Are Modifiers?

Generally speaking, "Modifiers" are customizations or adjustments that your guests can request for their food and drink. They also provide the special instructions to your kitchen or bar to prepare the menu items as the guest requested. 

Item Modifiers are the individual modifications you'd like to offer. They are unique to your business. 

Modifier Groups categorize your similar Item Modifiers together and can be added to your Inventory Items so that the server or guest is prompted to make a selection from that Group with that Item. For example, prompting to choose which type of cheese they want on their burger. 

Prerequisites

  • You are using Arryved Online Store or OpenTab or both. 

  • To apply Forced Modifiers to Inventory, you must be a Portal Super Admin or an Admin with one of the following Portal permissions: 

    • INVENTORY

    • ALL ACCESS

    • FULL ADMIN

How It Works 

Example of Modifiers 

  1. Menu Item: Cheeseburger

  2. Modifier Group: Choice of Cheese

  3. Item Modifiers in this Group: Cheddar, Swiss, Pepper Jack, Gouda

  4. Applied to the Inventory Item: Apply this Modifier Group to the cheeseburger Item, and the server or guest will be prompted to select one of the cheese options when they order the cheeseburger.

Applying Modifier Groups to Arryved Online & OpenTab

If you want a Modifier Group to be prompted with the Item when ordered online or through OpenTab, there’s one setting you must have in place: 

  • When configuring a Modifier Group to the Item, make sure “ALL” or “ONLINE” is selected in the fourth row.

    • ALL: means this Modifier Group will be prompted with this Item when ordered in Arryved Service, Arryved Online, and OpenTab. 

    • ONLINE: means this Modifier Group will be prompted with this Item when ordered in Arryved Online or OpenTab only.


How It Looks Online

Here’s an example of how “Meat Temperature” and “Choice of Cheese” applied Modifier Groups are prompted when the Cheeseburger Item is ordered in your Arryved Online Store. (P.S. OpenTab looks very similar): 


Gut Check!

Head to your Online Store or scan an OpenTab QR code, begin to order the Item with the Modifier Group(s) attached, and see how it looks!
