Choose Ingredients
On this screen you choose the ingredients of an item when you add it to an order. If the item has a configured recipe, it appears with the recipe ingredients selected, and you can modify and add ingredients.
How to get here: by selecting a sales item with the left mouse button on the Place an Order screen.
The ingredients appear classified in columns, which are the inventory items groupings.
Ingredient colors
Each chosen ingredient appears with a background line of a certain color:
| Background | What it means | How to get it |
|---|---|---|
| Grey background | An ingredient defined in the recipe and configured as Selectable. | It appears this way if you do not change anything. |
| Blue background | An extra ingredient. | To add an ingredient, click it. |
| Green background | A double ingredient. | Double-click the ingredient, whether it is defined by default in the recipe or is an extra ingredient. |
| Red background | An ingredient of the recipe that you remove: it is no longer added to the item. | To remove an ingredient predefined in the recipe, click the ingredient that has a grey background. |
| Purple background | An ingredient configured as Mandatory in the recipe. | It cannot be removed. |
| Yellow background | A free ingredient. | With the blue button with the gift package (see "Free ingredient"). |
To be able to remove an ingredient, it must be Selectable. Ingredients configured as Mandatory in the recipe cannot be removed.
Price change
All the changes you make may change the price of the item, which you see in the lower left part of the screen.
The price change depends on how you configured the ingredients when adding the inventory items to a family group.
Free ingredient
If you have the required system access level, and after identifying yourself, you can turn a paid ingredient into a free ingredient:
- Press the blue button with the gift package.
- Click the ingredient or ingredients you want to give for free.
The ingredients given for free appear with a yellow background line.
Allergens
In the lower left part of the screen the corresponding allergens are activated: the ones you activated on the Allergens screen.
Star Item
If there is a sales item you can offer the customer that is not included in the menu, add it as a Star Item:
Example. A Star Item can be fried egg.
To use the Star Item, the person who places the order must have the required level in the function "Sale system items" on the Access Level Definition screen.
Adding several identical items
Add just one first. Then change the quantity by clicking the number that appears in front of each item added to the order.
