Write a recipe and record a production run

Write a recipe

1. Add ingredients as products with their purchase price and unit (kg, g, piece), marked not for sale.
2. Open Manufacturing → Recipes and create a recipe for a finished product.
3. Add each ingredient with its quantity and wastage %.
4. Enter the batch yield and any production cost (labour or overhead).
5. Save; the recipe shows the cost per unit.

Record a production run

1. Open Add production, choose the location, the product and the quantity made.
2. Record any wasted units.
3. Add a lot number and expiry date if you track them.
4. Finalise: ingredients come off stock, finished goods go on.
