📗 Adding modifiers (options or upsells)

To create options on items, from your Lightspeed Restaurant Manager, go to "Modifiers" and click "add group" (see Lightspeed's documentation on Creating Modifiers here).

Modifier groups can be used for:

• A required choice on an item (required modifier)
  • Single choice
  • Multi-choice
• Upselling additional items or extras on an item (optional modifier)
  • Unlimited
  • Limited

Required modifiers

To create a new modifier group, navigate to Products → Modifiers and click on "Add group".

Required single choice option

This type of modifier group can be used to add a single- choice REQUIRED option on a given product (ex: Small salad or Large salad / 6 chicken wings or 12 chicken wings).

1. UNCHECK "Multi select"

2. At least 1 Modifiers must have "Default Option" CHECKED

Required multi-choice options

It's also possible to require customers to select multiple options within a modifier group. (ex: require customers to select multiple toppings).

1. CHECK "Multi Select"

2. Unlimited choices: CHECK "No Max value" to allow customers to select unlimited options and set the Min # of options you'd like your customer to select.

3. Limit # of choices: UNCHECK "No Max Value" to limit the number of options a customer can add. Min must be set to at least 2, and Max to the # of choices possible.

4. At least 1 Modifiers must have "Default Option" CHECKED

Optional modifiers

Adding optional modifiers is a great way to increase your ticket size by creating upsells on a given item.

Unlimited choices

1. CHECK "Multi select"

2. CHECK "No Max value" and set "Min" to 0.

3. Max sure ALL modifiers in the modifier group have "Default Option" UNCHECKED.

Limited choices

1. CHECK "Multi select"

2. UNCHECK "No Max value" and set "Min" to 0 and "Max" to the max value you'd like to set.

3. Max sure all modifiers in the modifier group have "Default Option" UNCHECKED.
