How to set up a recipe (bill of materials)
A recipe (bill of materials) links a menu product to the ingredients it uses, so stock deducts automatically on every sale. For perishables, batch and expiry tracking (FEFO) keeps the oldest stock moving first.
- 1
Open the product
In Menu Management, select the product you want to cost.
- 2
Add the bill of materials
Add the ingredients and quantities the product uses.
- 3
Save
Save the recipe; the product now deducts those ingredients from stock whenever it sells.
- 4
Track batches (perishables)
For perishable ingredients, use batch and expiry tracking (FEFO) so the oldest stock is used first.
