Recipes can be used for products that are not bought and need to be made in the kitchen, or need to be assembled by staff members, for instance when we have a burger on the menu those burgers have to be prepared with ingredients such as a patty of some sort, lettuce, cheese and tomato. Recipes will help keep track of the stock used to assemble these products and help calculate the profits of selling this produced item.

STEP 1:
Log onto Admin and into your merchant and go to the “Products” sub-menu on the left hand side of the page, on this page click on the eye icon on the product you’d like to add a recipe for.

STEP 2:
Make sure that the product you are adding a recipe to is set to a production item under it’s own settings. Once you’ve clicked on the view icon, the product info will open up, and under the “Delete” button you will need to click on the “Recipe” button.

STEP 3:
When you’ve clicked on the “Recipe” button you will now be able to either search for an ingredient to add, or you will be able to create new ingredients under this menu.

STEP 4:
Once all of the ingredients you wish to have on it has been added you can calculate the cost of the product you added this recipe under and update the cost of the production of that item. Have now successfully created a recipe, the finished product should look like this:

Overriding Prices is a feature generally used to price Portions specifically per product in cases when the standard Percentage Based Portion pricing does not work due to price points desired. Overriding prices can be set up per item for Portions and it is generally used for Portions as portions impact inventory.

Why do we offer Portions?
The goal is to help reduce Item clutter. With portions used one can have one item such as a bottle of whiskey and 2 portions. When Portions are not used, the merchant would require managing 3 items instead.

TallOrder Portions allows the merchant to set up a set of portions and then assign such portion set to the applicable set of products. E.g. for Wine Portions, a user may have portions such as Glass and Carafe, in addition to the full bottle, or for Spirits one may have Single, Double and Triple tots as portions in addition to a full bottle.

Stock conversions need to be taken into consideration as well , and in this example we are using Tots to refere to the Shots boughtb on the Jack Danien sand the conversion details are displayed below ( Global look ups > Stock Units> Tot Stock unit details:

One can also set up the % of AddOns to be used as well as the % of AddOn prices. For most AddOns the % to be used and price is generally 100%. The exception may be for instance when dealing Pizza portions when one wants to use say 50% of the addons as inventory but charge 60% of the full pizza price.

Why do restaurants do that ? Anyone who would have paid R24 would also pay R25 and a small extra margin is made…
Price point theory…An item that is a Recipe cant be an item that is ordered on a PO – as its something the tenant produces… Only Ingredients can be ordered.

How to set up overriding prices
