What Is an Add-On Service?

An Add-On Service is an optional enhancement that can be offered alongside a custom herbal formula to improve convenience, usability, or therapeutic outcomes for the patient.

Common examples include:

  • Herbal decoction service

    • The formula is pre-boiled and delivered in ready-to-drink pouches

  • Herb Grinding

    • Raw herbs are processed by grinding them into a fine powder

Add-on services allow practitioners to offer value-added options without altering the core formula itself.


Add-On Service Categories

Add-On Service Categories help organize services and present them in logical groups within the Formula Builder.

To create or manage categories, navigate to:
Admin > Lists > Categories > Add-On Service Categories

Categories are optional but recommended for improved clarity and user experience.


Add-On Service Pricing

Add-on services may be:

  • Free

  • Charged as a fixed (flat) fee

  • Charged as a percentage of the formula ingredient cost

  • Charged using both methods

This flexibility allows pricing to align with operational costs and business preferences.
