Modifier
An option attached to a menu item — sugar level, ice level, size, add-on toppings, allergens. Good modifier design balances customer choice against kitchen complexity; modifiers should also flow into recipe deduction so inventory stays accurate.
Deep dive: modifier
Modifiers are where menu flexibility meets inventory accuracy. 'Ít đá', 'thêm trứng', 'size lớn', 'không hành' — each one either changes what leaves the kitchen, what it costs, or both, and a POS that treats modifiers as free-text notes loses the cost side entirely.
Three rules keep modifiers honest. Every modifier that consumes an ingredient must deduct it, so 'thêm phô mai' moves cheese stock and not just the burger SKU. Every modifier that changes price must do so per size and per channel, because a delivery menu carries commission the counter menu does not. And defaults must be chosen deliberately: the pre-selected size and add-on set is the single highest-leverage AOV control in the system, and it is usually left on whatever the installer configured on day one.

How does LOOP support Modifier?
LOOP supports modifier natively in its POS + KDS + inventory platform for Vietnamese F&B chains — no plugin or third-party integration required. It's one reason multi-outlet operators pick LOOP as their primary operations system.
