# How to handle Item 'Quantity'
Modifiers are shown as subitems.
**Example order (modifier is contained in the array**`subItems`**)**
```json Example
"payment": {
"amount": 1000,
"type": 0,
"due": 0
},
"note": "",
"items": [
{
"plu": "P-001",
"name": "Potato wedges",
"sortOrder": 0,
"price": 649,
"quantity": 2,
"productType": 1,
"subItems": [
{
"plu": "M-001",
"name": "Melted cheese",
"sortOrder": 0,
"price": 150,
"quantity": 1,
"productType": 2,
"subItems": []
}
]
}
],
```
## How quantity should be interpreted and calculated
In the above example, two of the product **Potato wedges** have been ordered, each with the same quantity of one **Melted cheese** as a sub-item.
The calculation of quantity to allow for the correct charge is:
**Total modifiers ordered = quantity of modifiers**`x`** quantity of products**
This is shown in the example receipt below where the item price is multiplied by the quantity.
## How to show this to the kitchen team
In the example below, **two** portions of Wedges have been ordered, each with the same amount of **two** melted cheese added.
In addition, **one** portion of wedges has been ordered with **three** melted cheese.
i.e., each unique order is separated, identical orders are consolidated
