Create a batch recipe

A batch recipe is something your kitchen makes in bulk, like a mayonnaise. Cost it once and every dish that uses it picks up the cost.

You'll do this from: head office, inside a group

1. Click Products, then Access group on the group the recipe belongs to.
2. Open the Recipes tab.
3. If you have not set them up yet, click Recipe categories and add the categories you use, for example Batch recipes (Food).
4. Click New recipe, choose Batch as the type and click Create.
5. Give it a Recipe name, choose the Group Categories (for example Food) and the Recipe category.
6. Click Add Ingredient. On the Ingredient tab, pick the ingredient, enter the Quantity and Unit of Measure, then click Add Ingredient. Repeat for each ingredient.
7. Under Batch Breakdown, enter the Yield (how much one batch makes) and the Yield Description (grams, millilitres or units). Add Wastage % if you lose some.
8. Misenplace works out the Cost/Yield for you.
9. Add the Method, Notes and Suitable For if you want them. Allergens come through from the ingredients automatically.
10. Click Save.

You can ignore Price Breakdown: it is for dishes you sell.
