Hi everyone!

I’m working on a new Build Your Own Breakfast Wrap, Scrambler, and Skillet setup, and I’m running into a challenge with the meat selection given these limitations:

BYO Structure:

1. Guests may choose up to TWO meats

2. Guests may choose unlimited veggies, cheeses, and sauces

Choose Meat Modifier Group Requirements:

1. Maximum of 2 meats

2. If the guest doesn’t select any meat, the base price should be reduced by $2

Our initial plan was to include a “No Meat” button within the meat selection group that would automatically reduce the price by $2. However, because the group allows up to two selections, guests could select Bacon + No Meat, which creates obvious issues. In store, we can train the staff to avoid this combination, but with online ordering, there’s a much higher risk of guests selecting both.

We're looking for a clean approach for both in store and online ordering.

Suggestions welcomed and appreciated! 🙂

The only thing I can think of right now is to set the base price at $2 lower, and then add the meats as a modifier, but then that would require each meat have a certain price.

There is another way that might work (but I haven't tested at all): First create an item called "Meats Selection" and set the base price at $2. Then add to it a modifier group with all your meats (no price for each modifier, 2 selections max).

When you create the Build Your Own Breakfast Wrap, add that item as a modifier (New Modifier from Existing Item).

Of course you still need to set the base price as $2 less, but if they don't select the Meat modifier, then it will be the correct price. And if they do select it, it will just be $2 more, as the meat selections don't have a price.

While I have you here… do you know if sequence pricing works with third-party ordering? We have another menu setup where we allow two free ingredients for griddle items, and any additional ingredients after the first two cost $0.50. I can get this working with sequence pricing on the POS/online ordering, but I’m not sure whether there are limitations for third-party platforms.

Last I knew it was not supported by anything but toast online ordering and mo&p (documentation still shows that as well). Which is unfortunate because it can make some things a lot easier.
