Modifiers

The QSR Modifiers page is available at:

https://app.pixaro.ai/qsr/modifiers

Feature Overview

Modifiers are customer choice groups used by QSR menu items.

A modifier group contains one or more options. The group can then be linked to a menu item so customers can customize that item during ordering.

Examples:

Modifier Group Options
Choose Size Small, Medium, Large
Add Toppings Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Onion
Select Sauce Mild, Hot, Garlic, BBQ
Choose Side Fries, Salad, Chips

Modifiers should be created before linking them to menu items.

Navigation path: Order Management > QSR > Modifiers

Required permissions: QSR access for the selected user role.

The modifier list is store-specific. Confirm the correct store is selected in the top toolbar before adding or editing modifier groups.

Deleting a Modifier Group

The Modifiers list includes a delete icon for each group.

When delete is clicked, Pixaro asks:

Are you sure you want to delete this modifier group?

Confirm only when the group is no longer needed.

Before deleting a modifier group, check whether it is attached to any QSR menu items. Removing a group that is still used by menu items can affect customer choices on those items.

Display Type

Display Type controls how the modifier group should appear to customers or downstream menu systems.

Display Type Meaning
Collapsed Group starts closed or compact where supported.
Expanded Group starts open or expanded where supported.

Use Collapsed for optional or less important groups. Use Expanded for required or important groups, such as choosing a size.

Option Pricing

Each modifier option can have its own price.

Examples:

Option Price
Small 0
Medium 1.00
Large 2.00
Extra Cheese 0.75

Use option pricing for upgrades, add-ons, or premium choices.

How Modifiers Are Used With Menu Items

After creating a modifier group, attach it to a QSR menu item from:

Order Management > QSR > Menu Items > Add/Edit Menu Item

When linked to a menu item, the user can configure:

  • Group Min Value
  • Group Max Value
  • Option price
  • Option min value
  • Option max value
  • Default option

This means the same modifier group can be reused, while item-level configuration controls how it behaves for a specific menu item.

Import and Export

The current QSR Modifiers page does not provide a visible import or export button.

Use Add Modifier to create groups and the edit action to update existing groups.

Troubleshooting

Issue What to Check
No modifier groups are shown Confirm the selected store, clear search/status filters, and check QSR permission.
Modifier group cannot be saved Confirm Group Name is filled in.
Option error appears Confirm every option has an Option Label.
Option price is wrong Review the Price value on the modifier option and the option-level price on linked menu items.
Modifier is missing from menu item setup Confirm the modifier group exists for the selected store and is active.
Delete was blocked or caused menu issues Confirm whether the modifier group is still linked to menu items.

Best Practices

  • Create reusable groups such as Choose Size, Add Toppings, and Select Sauce.
  • Keep option labels short and clear.
  • Use price only when an option changes the item total.
  • Avoid deleting modifier groups that may be reused by active menu items.
  • Review linked menu items after changing option names or prices.
  • Use clear group names so staff can easily find the right group when building menu items.
