Overview
Creating Modifier Groups and attaching them to Items is a critical feature in Office that enables Members/Guests to successfully order items that have options and/or cooking instructions exactly the way they want them. Effectively attached Modifier Groups automate the process of ensuring available options on the item(s) are offered and captured during the ordering process.
An FnB Item, such as a Burger, may have multiple Modifiers attached to it, so that Cooking Temps, Toppings, and Bread Type may be specified.When initially setting up the system, or as new collections of Items are added to Dining, Retail or Billing areas of a Club, Administrative Users will need to know how to Add a New Item Category.
