Open your Supy Portal and navigate to the Inventory module. From here, click ‘Recipes’.
Click ‘Add Recipe’, located at the top right-hand corner of the screen.
From here, there will be 4 sections:
Recipe Details
Packaging
Inventory
Cook Book
At this stage, choose between 'Finished' and 'Semi-Finished'.
A 'Finished' recipe is a completed product, while a 'Semi-Finished' recipe is an ingredient that goes into a 'Finished Recipe’. (For example, a burger would be a Finished recipe, whereas the sauce that goes inside that burger would be a Semi-Finished recipe)
Below that option, choose a Recipe Name in English and Arabic, and a Menu Category.
A Recipe Code is auto-generated for the recipe, but you can select whichever code you want.
Optionally, add a picture to the recipe.
Next, add the ingredients for your recipe. Press the plus icon to add an ingredient and use the search bar to search for the ingredient you want.
Once you have your ingredients, specify the Net Quantity and UOM for the item.
Whilst creating each ingredient, you can again specify the Preparation Wastage % for each item.
Based on the Net Quantity, the UOM, and the Preparation Wastage %, Gross Quantity and Cost are automatically calculated.
The Last Purchase Cost is automatically filled in based on your order history.
Finally, select whether your item is a modifier or not. A modifier is an item that is not depleted at a sale (For example, at a bar, a glass will not be used up. It can be washed and used again).
If you want to include your item into the total cost of the Recipe, select the ‘Include in Cost’ option.
Next, you have the Portion step. If your recipe is finished, then the portion is always set as 1 piece. If you have a semi-finished recipe, then you may select a UOM, Portion Size, and Yield for the Recipe.
The Yield for a recipe is how much of the items are actually used.
For Finished Recipes, you will have a ‘Costing’ section. If you are creating a semi-finished recipe, click ‘Save and go to packaging’, and skip straight to Packaging.
At Costing, fill in the Selling Price Inclusive of Tax. If there is a 5% VAT, select that option. Costing will automatically calculate how much percent of the price is due to tax.
If you want to be notified when food costs exceed a certain threshold, then input that percentage into that option.
If you want to, use the pie chart and pick between the ‘Average Cost’ and the ‘Last Purchase Cost’.
In the ‘Price Simulator’, you can also simulate different Target Food Costs to see how your selling price fluctuates based on your target food cost %. This simulator will compare your target food cost/price to your selling price you set in the Costing section.
Use this simulator to adapt/change your costing.
When finished click ‘Save and go to packaging’
Like the packaging for an item, first create the Base Packaging for the Recipe. Click ‘Create Base Packaging’ to start making your Base Packaging.
Select a Package name and Quantity for the Base Package. ‘Base unit’ will be filled out based on the unit set up in ‘Recipe Details’, and ‘Package item name’ will be auto-generated based on the Package name, Base unit, and Quantity.
Note: If you are making a Finished recipe, you will not be able to fill out the ‘Quantity in this package’, because it is fixed to 1.
If you want the Base Package to be depleted by piece, select the ‘Used as Piece?’ option.
When finished, click ‘Add’.
For additional packaging, click 'Add Packaging' and follow the same process.
When done, save and move onto the Inventory Section.
Inventory is only applicable for stockable items. If your item is unstockable, skip straight to the Cook Book section.
Inventory is the section where you specify information about the storage of the recipe.
First of all, check the selection that says ‘Allow this recipe to be stockable’.
Under the selection, fill out the ‘Inventory Details’. Here, select a UOM, Par Level, and Minimum Level.
From the dropdown menu, select the storage that the finished good will be stored in.
If your recipe is Finished, then you will have a ‘Cost Centers’ section. Otherwise, click ‘Save’ and go to Cook Book.
For each branch, select a cost center.
When finished, click ‘Save’ and go to Cook Book.
Cook Book is where you specify the Cooking/Preparation details for your recipe.
Under ‘Cooking Details’, specify the Cook Time (in Minutes) and how many people the dish serves.
You have the option to select how difficult the item is to prepare (1-5 Stars, 5 being the most difficult).
Next, create a preparation process for your recipe. Press the plus icon to add steps.
Add a description for each step.
If unsatisfied with any step, click the trash icon to the right of each step.
When done with the Preparation process, scroll down to the Serving section. This is where you specify the instructions for how to serve the good. Input these instructions into the text-field.
When satisfied with your selection, click ‘Save’.
Once you save your recipe, go back and your recipe/recipe customization will be visible.
