Feature Request: Support selecting the same modifier more than once

The title of this post has been edited from the original: Can I select the same modifier more than once?
 
Is there a way to select 1 modifier twice? For example, I have an item named '3 TACOS', once the item has been selected on the app, the cashier can choose the meats as modifiers: steak, fish, tofu, etc. However, sometimes guests want 2 steak and 1 fish for example. How can I make this happen?

Hi! I run a QSR and use square POS, not the restaurant version.

We sell bowls and have many options available with multiple possible combinations of modifiers.

 

It would be great to be able to select any modifier up to a total amount of modifier selections available to make it easier to both customers and staff to create the bowls.


In the meantime, we are using the workaround

Thanks

Hi @kekoapoke,

 

Thanks for stopping by. I'll look into this and see if we have any updates at the moment. 

Can someone from Square tech team please add a multiplier to the modifiers?

 

ie, say someone want 2 or 3 or whatever x tomatoes, or bacon, or cheese etc, currently for the modifiers, we can only enter the modifier one time.  So if we want multiple modifiers, we have to add each modifier items twice or three times or 4 times.  This can be very troublesome.  

 

For example, for the UberEats menu editior, we can add multipliers to the modifiers; ie 3 x bacon, 2 x tomatoes, 5 x cheese etc.

 

Please and thank you!

I want to bump this thread! I also think this is something that should be added as a high priority feature request!😁

Thanks @Nighthood and @SweetB for sharing your voices on this feature request! I'll make sure to flag this for our Product teams. I can see how this would be beneficial to have.

Are there any updates? I have a family pack bundle where we have 32 wings and customer can pick up to 10 sauces or dips. Having to type them all out eight times is extremely tedious, time consuming, and I'm unsure how that would even work at the POS level with 80 modifiers. Please, Square!

Hi Alex,

 

Were you able to follow up on any updates? This feature is essential for restaurants.

@arepazone,

 

I've looked into the ability to add in a value or numeric option next to a specific modifier and it is currently a feature request. The only work around would be to create the same modifier set repeatedly, and make it available to all applicable items. 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions by replying to this thread. 

What about for items with over 8-10 modifiers. It's too tedious and won't be practical at the point of sale. Also, for selling online it's going to be so confusing to customers!

Hey @arepazone-

 

Thanks for posting in the Seller Community and resurfacing this. 

 

We do not currently have an update to share regarding this feature request. We know it's important, and would be very useful to multiple businesses. I've passed your additional feedback onto our Product Teams, and I'll post in this thread if I hear any updates.

 

If you're in need of a workaround, we suggest contacting our Support Team so they can provide some suggestions in the meantime. Again, apologies for the inconvenience the lack of this feature has caused, and thanks for your patience.
