Ingredients in Resort Recipe are the basic products that you purchase from your suppliers. The program retains a number of details for each ingredient such as an ingredient's name, purchase quantity/unit and cooking (or usage) unit.
Each ingredient can be assigned to different categories. This feature lets you organize your ingredients into logical groupings. Ingredients can be assigned to more than one category if you wish.
There is no limit to the number of ingredients that can be stored in a Resort Recipe database. The only real limitation is that each individual ingredient must have a unique name. Resort Recipe will not let you create a new ingredient if there is already an existing ingredient with the same name.
Viewing ingredients
Ingredient details can be viewed from the Ingredient Page in the database window. The database window lists the current 'set' of ingredients in what's called the ingredient browser list (on the left) and displays the currently selected ingredient's details in the Ingredient Page on the right. For details on how to open and navigate within this form see the topic titled Ingredient Page.
Selecting ingredients for display
You can select a sub-set of your ingredients for display with the Ingredient Selection Filter. This lets you select, say, all ingredients assigned to a particular category for display. See Selecting or Filtering Ingredients and Ingredient Selection Filter dialog for more details.
Creating/modifying ingredients
Ingredients can be created and modified with the Ingredient dialog. You launch the Ingredient dialog from buttons within the Ingredient page.
