Ingredients and Recipes – Mark an Ingredient as Out

With ingredients you can mark a raw ingredient as out in one place, instead of finding every dish that contains it. Ingredients are optional and also give you:

• "Utan" (without) – removable ingredients can be left out in the POS and by the guest, e.g. "Utan lök" (without onion)
• Ingredient cost and margin per dish, if you fill in a cost price

Ingredients are not counted in quantity. To count portions or bottles, use the stock balance on the item, see Keep Track of Stock Levels. You need permission to manage the menu.

Add an ingredient:

1. In admin, open Meny → Produkter (Menu → Products) and choose the Ingredienser (Ingredients) sub-tab
2. Click Ny ingrediens (New ingredient)
3. Fill in Namn (Name). It is the only required field
4. Optionally fill in Enhet (Unit, e.g. g, ml or st) and Inpris (Cost price) per unit. The cost price is only visible to staff
5. Blockera artiklar vid slut (Block items when out) is on from the start: when the ingredient is out, the dishes where it is required are stopped. Turn it off if the dishes should still be sold
6. Click Skapa (Create)

The list shows for each ingredient whether it Blockerar vid slut (blocks when out), its unit, cost price and how many items use it. You can search and sort by A–Ö (A–Z) or Senast skapad (Newest).

Link ingredients to a dish:

1. Go to Meny → Produkter → Alla artiklar (Menu → Products → All items) and click the dish
2. Open the Tillval & recept (Options & recipe) tab and the Ingredienser & recept (Ingredients & recipe) section
3. Click Lägg till ingrediens (Add ingredient) and search. If it doesn't exist, type the name and choose Skapa "…" (Create "…")
4. Choose Typ (Type): Obligatorisk (Required), or Kan tas bort ("utan") (Can be removed) if the guest should be able to leave it out
5. Optionally fill in Mängd per portion (Amount per portion). It is used for the ingredient cost
6. Visa för gäst (Show to guest) is on from the start, so guests see the ingredient. Turn it off if it should not be visible to guests
7. Click Spara (Save) at the bottom

When the ingredients have a cost price, Råvarukostnad (Ingredient cost), Pris (Price) and Marginal (Margin) appear below the list. A new item has to be saved once before you can add ingredients.

Mark an ingredient as out:

1. Go to Meny → Produkter → Ingredienser (Menu → Products → Ingredients)
2. Turn on the Slut (Out) switch next to the ingredient

Then:

• Dishes where the ingredient is Obligatorisk (Required), and Blockera artiklar vid slut is on, show as Slut (Out) in the POS and can't be added to a bill. They can't be ordered online or at the self-service kiosk either
• Dishes where the ingredient Kan tas bort (Can be removed) can still be sold. The ingredient is shown as out

Turn the switch off when the ingredient is back, and the dishes can be sold right away. You can also open the ingredient and use Slut just nu (Out right now).

Delete an ingredient: click the trash icon next to the ingredient and confirm. If it is used in recipes, it is removed from them.
