Prep build is a two-way transaction. You provide the quantities of prep recipe(s) that you want to make, and reciProfity automatically accounts for the complete movement of inventory:
- Adds to the on-hand of the prep recipe
- Depletes the inventory required for making the prep recipe(s)
Now you can sell/transfer/count and use the prep recipe, and essentially track it like you would any inventory item.
The prep recipe will appear in the actual usage report (the build amounts act like a purchase), and the ingredients used will appear on the ideal usage report (just like inventory used when selling recipes).
Prep Builds allow you to run perpetual inventory on your prep recipes.
Put your prep recipe in a location for counting.
Use Waste Tracking to report any waste.
The Actual Usage report will now show usage for each prep recipe.
The Ideal Usage report will show usage for ingredients in a prep recipe.
The Variance report will show any variance of either ingredient OR prep recipe.
Show the items used in the ideal usage.
