    1. User adds hamburger to the cart.
    2. Once the item is tapped, a wizard window with additional items, sauces, beverages etc opens.
    3. Next, user needs to go through all wizard steps one by one (it’s not always obligatory to buy the items, but user needs to see all of the steps).IMPORTANT! Wizard item will be ready to use on Activate only when it has some modifiers assigned.To do it, go to Connect > Items > Modifiers > Create. Next, when modifier is created, you need to right click the modifier so that additional options open > Assigned Items tab.
