Where recipes are ‘things’ you’d normally produce in-house, in bulk (ie gravy, anchovy mayonnaise), Dishes are the actual items you sell to customers.
These are the menu items you have set up on your POS.
1. Go to Products -> Recipes & Dishes -> Dishes -> Add Dish
2. Fill in the ‘General info’ details such as Dish name, and choose a category (Food or Beverages)
3. Sections
Your dish can contain several sections. For example: Starter, Main and Dessert.
To create a section, click on the ‘+ Section’ -> Add a ‘Section name’
4. Add ingredients in each ‘Section
Click on ‘+ Ingredient’ -> Select ‘Product’, ‘Recipe’ or ‘Other ingredient’ -> Add Quantity
