Manufacturing / Recipe Module 

Using manufacturing module

Creating Recipe:

1. To add a new recipe, go to Manufacturing -> Recipe
2. Click on the Add button, it will open a popup,
3. Choose Product: select the product for which you want to add a recipe
4. Copy from recipe: (optional) choose the product whose recipe will be copied to the chosen product. You can use this option to quickly copy a recipe from another product & make small changes as required.
5. Add all ingredients/raw materials, wastage percentage & final quantity.
   The wastage percentage mentioned here is wastage for the raw ingredients which happens when the ingredient is cleaned, for example in cabbage some % is wasted when leaves & stems are removed. If the raw materials you’re using don’t have wastage you can keep it 0 %, which is the default.
   Raw Ingredients: Raw ingredients are taken from the list of products. You can mark a raw ingredient as “Not For Sale” if it is not used for selling individually. For example, Some Raw ingredients like butter can be sold, some cannot be.

1. Wastage %:  Enter the wastage for the final product which can happen because of bad quality or other reasons.
2. Total Output Quantity: Output quantity for which you entered the recipe.
3. Production Cost: Check the production cost as described below.
4. Recipe Instructions: Steps to be followed for the production of the final product from ingredients.

Production Cost:

1. Fixed: If cost is fixed then a fixed amount will be used as production cost.
2. Percentage: If percentage then the percentage of ingredients cost is taken as production cost.
3. Per Unit: In this case, the total production cost is multiplied by the total output quantity

Adding Production:

1. To add production go to Manufacturing -> Add Production
2. Reference No: Optional reference number, you can keep it blank to auto-generate it.
3. Business Location: Select the business location where production is done. Raw ingredients stocks will be deducted from this location & final manufactured product stock will be added to this location.
4. Product: Select the product for manufacturing. based on selected product it will display all the Raw ingredients from recipe added.
5. Quantity: Quantity of final product to manufactured. Based on this Raw ingredients quantity will be calculated from recipe.
6. Input Quantity: Input quantity raw ingredients which will be used for production.
7. Wastage Percent: Waste percentage of raw ingredients. For example, if you took Cabbage 1 KG, and 200 grams is wastage then wastage percentage is 20%, so 800 grams will be the final quantity.
8. Final quantity: Input Quantity – Wastage Percent
9. Wasted Quantity: Wastage quantity of final product for any reason.
10. Production Cost: Check the production cost as described below.
11. Finalize checkbox: Check this checkbox to finalize the production, this will remove the stock of raw ingredients & add stocks for the manufactured products. After finalizing the production cannot be edited.

Changes in Material(Item) Quantity during Production:

When production is done for a product, the quantity of raw materials gets reduced.

For example, for adding production of 1 packet of Chocolate Milk Shake. The raw materials used here are 1 packet of milk and 1 packet of bar chocolate.
When production is added for this product(Chocolate Milk Shake) and finalized, the following changes happen in product quantity.

1. The quantity of milk gets decreased by 1 packet.
2. The quantity of bar chocolate gets decreased by 1 packet.
3. The quantity of Chocolate Milk Shake gets increased by 1 packet.

NOTE: These changes happen for just one time when the production is added.

Settings:

1. Production Ref No. prefix: Prefix number when production reference number is auto-generated.
2. Disable editing ingredients quantity: Disable editing of ingredients when adding production, this can help to restrict staff from editing raw ingredients

Using Manufacturing Module for Repackaging and Selling:

Sometimes, instead of manufacturing, businesses may repack raw materials and sell them in smaller quantities.

For example, a business may purchase oil in tones/liters/containers and repackage it to 1 liter, 500ml, 250ml, etc and sell them.

To achieve this follow the steps below
Step 1: Add the required  product in each quantity using the add product feature

In our example,

Add the products as PD1 – Oil(tones/liters/containers), PD2 – Oil(1 litre), PD3 – Oil( 500ml), PD4 Oil (250 ml).
Mark the main product, Oil purchased in tones/liters/containers as “Not for Selling”.

Step 2: Add the Recipe

In our example,

Add the recipe for Oil – 1 litre, Oil – 500ml, and Oil – 250 ml.
Use the main product(Oil purchased in tones/liters/containers) as the ingredient.
The ingredient used for PD2 – Oil(1 liter) should be 1 liter of main product i.e, PD1 – Oil(tones/liters/containers)
Save the recipe.
Similarly, add the recipe for each required quantity.

Step 3: Add the Production for the recipe

Add the production for the added recipe in step 2.

Step 4: Add Sale

Now you can sell the product PD2 – Oil(1 liter) from the add sale/POS screen.
