Set the Combo Price for each of the Products to the amount to be increased/decreased by when down/upsizing. The Combo Price for the default size will be $0.00. Note : the Combo Price here is set to -$1.00. This means that to downsize from the default (being a Medium in this example) to a Small Fries, this would mean the total Combo price would be decreased by $1.00. Similarly to upsize to a Large Fries, the Combo Price could be set to $1.00 and would mean a the total Combo price would be increased by $1.00. The Combo Price for the Medium Fries (being the default) would be set to $0.00.

- Combo Price - Set the Combo Price for each of the Products to the amount to be increased/decreased by when down/upsizing. The Combo Price for the default size will be $0.00. Note : In the screenshots above the Combo Price is set to $0.00 for the Small Rice, being the default, $0.75 for the Medium and $1.50 for the Large. This means that to upsize from the Small (default) to the Medium Rice, the total Combo price would be increased by $0.75. Similarly to upsize to a Large Rice, the total Combo price would be increased by $1.50.
- Downsize/Upsize Product - Specify, where applicable, the Down/Upsize related Products here. Note : All the Products for all the different serving sizes will need to be created first, before the Downsize/Upsize Products can be specified.
