Recipes tag

Start from: Sites > Administration of Tags.

To learn more about tags, refer to the article What is a tag and what is it used for?

Use the "Recipes" tag to limit the visibility of certain recipes on certain sites. The tag allows you to filter the list of recipes and especially to set up catalogs to make available to sites bearing the same tag in their settings.

A site bearing the "SUMMER RECIPES" tag will only be able to see recipes from the parent site bearing this same tag. It will be able to see its local recipes in addition. This is therefore indeed a functionality allowing administrators to offer recipes adapted to this or that child site.

Tags of the "Recipes" type apply to recipe sheets from the RECIPES MANAGEMENT screen (RECIPES section) and site settings.

Recipe components tag

Start from: The Easilys menu.

To learn more about tags, refer to the article What is a tag and what is it used for? and to the article Create a tag, if needed.

The "Recipe components" tags can be applied in recipe sheets, on each component line (ingredient, industrial product, sub-recipe).

  • Select Recipes > Recipes management.
  • Select the desired recipe.
  • On the line of the relevant component, select the + icon in the Tag column to add the desired tag.

Subsequently, they allow you to configure the editing of reports available on the Production screens (Production section) and Packaging and logistics (Shipment section), as well as order preparation, managed by Easilys, on the Order preparation screen (Menus section).

Simply use the Recipe component tags filter to tell Easilys whether or not to take into account elements bearing such and such tag, in order to edit reports or prepare orders.

Example: If you don't want to order salt and pepper every time they appear in a recipe, add the "Recipe components" "Do not buy" tag to the SALT and PEPPER ingredient. When you prepare your orders, exclude recipe components bearing the "Do not buy" tag and Easilys generates an order list without taking these two ingredients into account.

Add progression to a recipe

If your environment is configured for multiple languages, the multilingual icon appears for some fields. For more information on how to use it, see the article Use Easilys in multilingual mode .

Start from: The Easilys menu.

In the Progression section:

A pop-up window Update recipe preparation appears:

Duplicate a recipe

Start from: The Easilys menu.

The Duplicate window appears on the screen.

A recipe sheet named as follows copy NAME OF THE DUPLICATED RECIPE appears:

Note: Do you have the possibility to manage recipe variations? Rather than duplicating your recipe to have a version without salt or without meat, favor recipe variation. To learn more, see the article Decline a recipe to have different versions compatible with different segments, textures and/or particular diets.

Using multiple Smart Yield rules

Start from: The Easilys menu.

The variations resulting from the yield rates will be applied one after the other to the remaining material.

Example case

100/100 * (100 - 15) / 100 = 85%85/100 * (100 - 5) / 100 = 80.75%

80.75/100 * (100-10) / 100 = 72.675%

Add a non-compliant meal to a meal plan

Start from: The Easilys menu.

If the Ability to add dishes that do not comply with the meal plan permission is enabled on the user's profile, then they have access to the "Comply with meal plan" or "All" filter in the recipe selection window to be placed in the menu.
When the filter is set to "All" and not "Comply with meal plan", recipes that do not comply with the meal plan have a crossed-out heart icon (the symbol of the MEAL PLAN screen crossed out).

Note: If you do not have the necessary permission, contact your administrator or our Support team to check if it is possible to enable the permission on your profile.

Optimize Smart Grammage rules using recipe categories

If your environment is configured for multiple languages, the multilingual icon appears for some fields. For more information on how to use it, see the article Use Easilys in multilingual mode .

Start from: The Easilys menu.

Using recipe categories and subcategories

A recipe category, as its name suggests, allows you to categorize recipes, to group them together in the same group. The recipe subcategory further refines this categorization.

The benefit of this categorization is, first of all, to be able to filter your recipe list.

Example: If you are looking for a dessert recipe sheet, use the Recipe Category filter by checking only the Dessert category. You will then have, on the screen, only the recipe sheets attached to this category.

Finally, recipe categories and subcategories can be a criterion for applying a rule of Smart Selection, Smart Grammage, Smart Packaging, Smart Catalogue, or smart particularity.

Manage your recipes

Start from: The Analytics dashboard.

  • Navigate to Configuration > Recipes.

  • The Recipes screen displays a grid where you can view and manage all recipes stored in the system.

  • At the top of the screen, you’ll find filters to narrow down your results:

    • Language: Filter recipes by their language version.

    • Family: Group recipes by family categories.

    • Subfamily: Further narrow down the results within each family group.

  • After selecting your filters, relevant recipes will be displayed in the grid.

  • The main grid includes the following columns:

    • ID: Unique identifier for each recipe.

    • Recipe: Name of the recipe.

    • Main: Indicates which recipe is the main one within a set. Only one recipe can be marked as primary.

    • Recipe by Groups: Organises recipes by category or sales group if applicable.

Optimise Smart Selection rules through recipe categories and sub-categories

Start from: The Easilys menu.

A recipe category, as its name suggests, allows you to categorize recipes, grouping them together in the same group. The recipe sub-category further refines this categorization.

The advantage of this categorization is, first of all, that you can filter your recipe list. Looking for a dessert recipe? Well, use the "Recipe category" filter, checking only the "DESSERT" category. You will then see only the recipes in this category.

There's a second, much more interesting interest! Recipe categories and sub-categories can be a criterion for applying a Smart Selection, Smart Grammage, Smart Packaging or Smart Catalogue rule.

To find out more about creating and modifying categories and sub-categories, see CREATING, MODIFYING OR DELETING A RECIPE CATEGORY OR SUB-CATEGORY.
 

Optimise Smart Catalogue rules using recipe categories and subcategories

Starting point: The Easilys menu.

Using recipe categories or subcategories

  • A recipe category allows you to categorise recipes and group them together within the same group.

  • A recipe subcategory allows you to refine this categorisation further.

Thanks to recipe categorisation, you can:

    • Filter your recipe list to show only those that belong to a specific category.

    • Use categories and subcategories as criteria for applying a rule in Smart Selection, Smart Grammage, Smart Packaging or Smart Catalogue.
