Make sure quantity and unit cost use the same unit. These ingredient rows are not saved.

Normalize units before costing

Quantity and unit cost must use the same unit. If cost is per kilogram, convert grams to a fraction of a kilogram before entering them.

Update unit cost after new receipts and account for preparation yield when it changes the usable quantity.

Frequently asked questions

Should quantity be grams or kilograms?

Either works as long as it matches the ingredient cost unit.

Where does packaging go?

Use the batch packaging field. If packaging is per portion, multiply it by the number of portions first.

Are ingredients saved?
