Modifier Inventory
Overview
Modifiers are the add-ons and options on a product — an extra shot, oat milk, a choice of sauce. Modifier Inventory lets a modifier carry its own stock count, so an add-on can sell out independently of the product it belongs to.
For example, your coffee never runs out, but oat milk might — modifier inventory handles exactly that.
How it works
- Each modifier option (a "modifier value") can have stock tracking turned on.
- When a sale includes that modifier, its count goes down.
- At zero or below, the modifier shows as sold out and can't be added.
- Stock can be a single shared count, or set per outlet.
Default setup
Bean & Brew example: track oat milk so it can sell out without affecting coffee.
- Open Stock Control → Modifier Values and edit the modifier (e.g.
Oat Milk). - Turn on Track quantity.
- Set Remaining quantity to your current count.
- Save.
