Modifier Group Maintenance

Modifier Group Maintenance allows you create and define groups for your condiments and modifiers.

The maintenance screen is divided into the following three sections:

Maintenance Grid

The grid area displays the currently defined modifier groups. All fields are display-only and all modifications to modifier groups must be done by selecting the row and modifying the fields in the data entry section. Once the focus is within the grid area, you may use the arrow-up and arrow-down keys to navigate through each of the rows. All values for the selected item will be displayed dynamically in the data entry section.

Select All

Clicking on the upper left corner of the grid will select all modifier groups. To select multiple contiguous rows, select the first row then press down the SHIFT key on your keyboard and while the SHIFT key is pressed, select the last row in your range. To select multiple rows that are not contiguous, select the first row then press down the CTRL key on your keyboard and while the the CTRL key is pressed, select each subsequent row that you want to include in the selection. Once you are done selecting all your rows, you can release the CTRL key. All data edits or option changes will be applied to all selected rows. Pressing on the Delete button while in multi-select mode will delete all selected modifier groups.

	Item Row Maintenance
	Right clicking on any of the row numbers will display a pop-up menu that will allow you Delete, Insert or Duplicate a row. Rows may also be deleted, inserted or duplicated by using the delete, insert or duplicate buttons in the buttons area.

	Column Sort
	Clicking on a column header will sort the rows either in ascending or descending order, A small arrow at the top of the column will point up for ascending or down for descending order.

Data Entry

The data entry area dynamically displays the currently selected modifier group.

	Modifier Group Id

	Caption
	Enter the modifier group caption.

	Options
	Select one or more of the following modifier group options:

Compulsory Selection

Select this option if you want to force the user to select at least one modifier from this condiment group. On GoPOS, selling an item with a Modifier Group will pop up the modifier selection window. If the users attempts to clear the window before making at least one selection, a "Select Condiment" message will be displayed.

Forced Quantity

Select this option if the modifier group has a forced quantity. If this option is chosen, the actual forced quantity must be entered in the fixed quantity field displayed below the options. On GoPOS, selling an item with a Modifier Group will pop up the modifier selection window. If the users attempts to clear the window before meeting the forced quantity requirements, a "Select x more" message will be displayed. User can not exit the screen until the minimum quantity has been met.

Stay Down Windows

Select this option if the window should remain open after a selection. This will allow further entries to be made and force the user to close the window on completion using the clear fixed function. If this option is not set, the window will automatically close after the first selection is made or once the minimum quantity has been met.

Select this option if the user requires managerial rights. If the user does not have managerial rights, a "Manager Required" message will be displayed and the Modifier selection window will not pop up. Managerial override may be accessed by pressing the USR key and temporarily logging in as a user with managerial rights. "Mo" will be displayed at the top of the register to indicate managerial override mode. The register will return to regular mode once the entry has been completed or the CLEAR key has been pressed.
