Adding product modifiers or notes to Tebi

What are modifier groups?

The modifier groups consist of two groups: note and product modifiers.


Product modifiers

These modifiers are the add-ons or customizations that your customers can choose for a product. Perhaps it’s extra bacon on a burger or oat milk in a cappuccino. A product modifier can cost extra or it can be free. It can be optional or mandatory. You can even apply multiple modifiers to one product.

Note modifiers

Note modifiers are a form of internal communication that can be used for multiple indications, such as allergies and dietary requirements or the preparation of a steak. A note is always free of charge. It can be optional or mandatory.

Where to find modifier groups

In the Tebi Back Office

Go to the Back Office > Products > Modifier Groups. In the top right corner you find Add Note Modifier to assign notes to products and Add Product Modifier to assign modifiers to products.
