Recipe on Terminal

Should this option be enabled, Maitre'D will be able to display the sales item recipe on the touch screen whenever a server requires it. If a bar recipe (text recipe) is linked to the item, then that recipe will be used, otherwise, it is the inventory system recipe will be used instead (however, the Inventory Management module must be installed). This option is useful when teaching employees to prepare certain sales items, like cocktails. By enabling this option, you can access the Recipe editor.

Example:

Level 1/Quantity = 10 g

If 1 modifier is chosen then the quantity of this modifier will be 10 g.

Level 2/Quantity = 9 g

If 2 modifiers are chosen then the quantity of this modifier will be 9 g.

Level 10/Quantity = 1g

If 10 modifiers are chosen then the quantity of this modifier will be 1g.
