Lesson 20 / 25

Ingredients, production, wastage, quality & cost

Connect recipes, receiving, preparation, wastage, expenses and reports while preserving unknowns.

Before you begin

Reviewed recipes/base units plus real receiving costs, branches, lots and shop-defined quality reviewers.

Where to go

Products / Purchase / Wastage / Operations / Reports

Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.

Follow these steps

  1. Pin the recipe and SOP used for preparation/production. Verify batch yield and ingredient units; do not edit today's recipe to rewrite old-sale cost.
  2. Receive ingredients with PO/lot evidence, actual quantity and cost. Keep usable, held, wasted and in-transit quantities distinct.
  3. When the workflow is enabled, record production and wastage against actual lots; do not dispose the same yield variance twice.
  4. Record expenses/input VAT separately from receiving. In Reports/cost reconciliation, review sales, evidenced cost, reviewed expenses and every unknown.
  5. Use menu/cost analysis as decision support only. A human reviews evidence before changing recipe, price, purchasing or releasing held lots.

How to verify success

A sold unit traces to recipe/lot/cost, wastage is not duplicated and missing cost remains unknown rather than zero.

Limits & things to check

Checklist approval or lot release is a human evidence-based decision, not automatic safety certification; report profit is not a tax filing.
