Instructions provide additional direction on how to apply mods to an order. This is especially helpful for restaurants who communicate specific instructions to kitchen staff before an order is prepared.
- Instructions appear on green buttons in the Modifiers section.
- Example: An Italian restaurant applies these instructions to clarify their modifiers: Extra $, Add $. Associated modifiers include: Olives, Onions, Peppers. A customer orders a House Salad with “Extra” + “Olives”. “Extra” is an instruction on how to apply “Olives” and is associated with an additional price.
Up to 8 Instructions can be created via custom variables.
- From Home, tap Settings.
- Tap Preference.
- Tap Cust vars (Custom Variables).Â
- Scroll to select Instructions.Â
- 8 instructions can be defined. Tap on an instruction label and type a name. For example, tap on Instruction 2 and type “Extra”.
- Note: Instruction 1 is hard-coded as “Hold”. Instructions 2 – 9 can be customized.
- (Optional) Add a price in the Price $ field.
- Check the Active box to activate, or deselect the checkbox to deactivate.
- Tap Save.Â
- Tip! Check your work! Place an order associated with MODS at the register and confirm that modifier instructions are intact.
