At the top of this window there is an option to require modifiers. If modifiers are required, then whenever the item is added to a check you will be required to select the modifiers. If modifiers are not required then you will not be prompted to select them when the item is added to a check. To edit the modifiers on an item that has already been added to a check, press and hold on the item and then select Modifiers.

This will open up the modifiers for the selected item. Select the correct modifier and then click Accept to add that modifier to the item.

Modifiers can not be used to affect the price of an item, and only one option can be chosen for each modifier. If you need something that can affect the price, you will want to use a supplement.
