Modifier Pricing Tiers are used to give discounts based on quantities sold. Built-in quantity discounts for your modifier are set in the Management Module and will be calculated automatically during order entry. Remember that charges for modifiers are always included in the product or line item total and these discounts are not visible to your customers. There are three methods for setting up modifier pricing tiers, maximum discounts, custom discounts, and the percentage conversion tool.  


This article covers the following topics:


If you don’t want to give a built-in discount for this modifier, set your maximum discount at 0% then click Save & Recalculate. This Modifier is now set to be charged at full price regardless of the quantity ordered. The price can also be overridden in Order entry if needed, based on user permission.

Custom Discounts

The second way to set up the discount chart table is to customize the discount percentage. You can customize each cell and then click Save Custom Discounts which will update only the cells that you have changed.
