I'm getting set up with the Order part and End of Day. The stock part is more complicated, and I miss that the Help file would say some more about Menu Item Modifiers. When I click around I'm getting the following error:

The field 'ItemComp.itemid' cannot contain a Null value because the Required property for this field is set to True. Enter a value in this field.

Which field are we talking about and which value? Where can I get some help on this?

Modifiers will tell the cook/bar tender (or somebody) how the costumer wants things done.

Let say, you sell steaks, and you have a Menu Item: Steak,..
Now; how do they want their steak done ? well done ? red ? medium ?
Those are modifiers...

Eggs: Scrambled ? Over easy/medium/hard ?
Margarita (mixed drink): on the rocks ? blended ?

Those are modifiers. You will setup those options on the MENU ITEM MODIFIER feature for your servers to choose from to let the right person know how to prep such item.

If your server come across a special request on how to get something done, they can also use "Notes" to advise the cook;
"Please make sure this and that, picky customer! thank you"
