- It is important that the recipe usage compliments the unit of measure that the raw ingredient is set up with. For example:
- If you set up Burger Patties as a raw ingredient and they are delivered as a case of 100 patties, the recipe units should reference the number of patties used to create that recipe (e.g. 1 each)
- If you set up a Ketchup as a raw ingredient and it is delivered as a 1 gallon container, the recipe units should reference the number of ounces used to create that recipe (e.g. 2 ounces)
- Enter the quantity of the item that the recipe build yields. For example:
- For a hamburger, the total quantity for the recipe items shown yields 1 each (or 1 hamburger)
