While you can portion each of your individual menu items (Anything that can be sold to a customer is considered a menu item. Pizza, drinks, and promotional merchandise are examples of menu items.), the recommended practice is to use a CYO item as the base portioned item. Toppings, or even menu items such as specialty pizzas, can then be added as modifiers (A Modifier is a choice that is applied to a menu item, such as a pepperoni topping on a pizza.) to each portion of the CYO item. This provides a much easier way to offer portioned items.

An easy way to offer specialty pizzas as combos (for example half pepperoni and half Hawaiian pizza), is to create a CYO pizza that is portioned, and add the pepperoni and Hawaiian pizzas to each half as modifiers.

, and then click the Portions tab.
