Inventory Recipes define how much of each inventory item is used when you sell a concession item.
๐ How It Works
A Recipe Trigger links the recipe to a specific Item Variation at POS
A Recipe lists one or more Inventory Items and how much is used when triggered
๐ Example: Cheese Pizza
Trigger: Sale of "Cheese Pizza" item variation
Recipe draws:
1 Pizza Base
5 oz Cheese
3 oz Sauce
๐ง Prepareable Recipes
Use this if you prep items ahead of time (e.g. make 20 pizzas in the morning).
Mark the recipe as Prepareable
Create a Preparation Adjustment to:
Draw down ingredients
Add completed prepared items to inventory
When sold, the system reduces the prepared item, not raw ingredients
Great for managing short-shelf-life or batch-made products i.e. doughnuts baked onsite, or sauces prepped to serve as a side on a meal.
๐ Notes
Every recipe must have a trigger item variation and at least one inventory item.
Prepared recipes act as intermediate inventory products (e.g. pre-made batches).
When modifying a recipe, changes apply to future sales only.
Use consistent units of measurement across recipes to ensure reporting accuracy.
