Preparations are pre-cooked dishes that consist of ingredients. For example, sauce or dough for pizza.
💡 Combine ingredients into preparations to use them in different dishes. For example, you can combine flour, eggs, and yeast into a “Dough” preparation, that you’ll use for buns or croissants.

☝️ Supply all the ingredients to calculate the preparation cost correctly.

Make retroactive preparation editing to include any recipe changes into your past sales. Change ingredients or edit their quantities in preparations that have already been sold. Poster will recalculate their previous cost and remaining stock balances for the selected period.
☝️ You can sell preparations only as part of a dish, but not separately. Therefore, they are not displayed on the register.
