If you are talking about the good old McDonalds way, where you have Combo Meals that you can customise, then this can be done by Order Tags. When you select a product, you can add or remove additional products, each with their own recipes.

If you are talking about select one product and some more products are automatically selected, then this would be setup with Rules & Actions.

i sopouse that you realise that my english its not so good, so my vocabulary its short, but you understand what i try to say,  thank you. I was talking about to select one product and more are automatically selecterd, thanks

I have a solution, but it is not working as required as I think we have a bug with the Action 'Add Order'. I have raised an issue for this.

Problem has been fixed in 3.0.25b.

For this example (using default SambaPOS database) I will add a Coffee to any Breakfast Menu Item. To make this more like a promotion, I am also making the Coffee 50% off by using a second Action to update the Coffee price.

Create an Action
Name - Add Coffee
Action Type - Add Order
Menu Item Name - Coffee
Portion Name - Normal
Quantity - 1

Create an Action
Name - Coffee 50% Off
Action Type - Update Order
Price - [=Order.Price / 2]

Create a Rule
Name - Add Coffee to Order
Event Name - Order Added to Ticket
Constraint - Menu Item Group Code = Breakfast
Action - Add Coffee to Order
Action - Coffee 50% Off

Everytime you select a Breakfast Item, Coffee is added automatically at half price.

This should give you a starting point on how to link products together automatically.

I had seen this in Order Tag Group, but I think out new updates, will be that the the action of the product added to the ticket would not solve?
