Certain products subject to a Smart Delivery rule must be delivered on the day of consumption at the final delivery point. However, it is necessary for other products from the same supplier, not affected by the Smart Delivery rule, to be delivered the day before or a few days earlier to the central kitchen and therefore require a minimum delay between delivery and production. To ensure that this delay between delivery and production does not affect the products concerned by the Smart Delivery rule, a new line has been added to the supplier record.
Starting point: The Easilys menu.
Example: A recipe for rillettes and bread is planned on the menu.
- A Smart Delivery rule has been created for the bread, so that it is delivered directly to the consumption site.
- However, a three-day delay between delivery and production affects the recipe: as a result, the bread will also be subject to this delay and will be delivered three days before consumption at the consumption site.
- To avoid this, you should indicate a delay between delivery and consumption on the supplier record, which will only affect products impacted by a Smart Delivery rule.
Set the delay between delivery and consumption
- Select Products > Suppliers.
- Select, from the list, the supplier record concerned by this delay.
The supplier record appears on the right of the screen:
- Select Edit at the bottom right of the supplier record.
- Select the Deliveries tab.
In the Delay between delivery and consumption line:
- Enter the desired number of days.
- Select Save.
This delay will apply only to products from this supplier that are impacted by a Smart Delivery rule.
