Ingredient is a kind of product feature not stocked out of the warehouse, but only the product’s ingredients are. This lets you define at the point of sale of a product the exactly defined quantity of other items to be stocked out of the warehouse.
Examples of ingredients:
Create coffee, milk and coffee with milk products. When charging coffee with milk, the product itself will not be stocked out of the warehouse, but only the corresponding amount of its ingredients (coffee and milk). You can use ingredients when selling draft beverages or when you stock out 0.3 or 0.5 liter of another common product (barrel). You can also stock out from the warehouse various hair dressing preparations that consist of ingredients in an uneven proportion.

Important notes for ingredients
The main product that contains the ingredients should never be stocked out of the warehouse. Only the ingredients used in the product are stocked out. In the settings of the main product, deactivate the option to Deduct from stock.
Individual ingredients should be hidden so they are not displayed on individual cash registers and cannot be charged separately. For products to be used as ingredients deactivate the option Display.
The maximum number of ingredients that you can deduct should not be greater than 15. For some resources it is also useful to set up waste, e.g. 5% of the total volume. This allows the system to take into account any potential waste when selling the relevant product, e.g. beer.

You can also set up ingredients directly on the cash register. To see how to set up warehouse ingredients directly in the cash register, go to this chapter. |
Negative ingredients quantity
You can also enter a negative ingredient value, for example when you serve a pizza with ingredients and the customer does not wish to have any of them on his/her pizza. As a standard you serve the pizza with ham, but the customer does not want ham on it. When selling this pizza you need to leave the ham stock without change after this sale. This can be done easily by creating a “No ham” product and set its ham ingredient in the same amount but with the minus sign. So when you sell the pizza the ham will first be deducted but then by recognizing the “No ham” product it will be added back again. The ham stock will therefore not change with the sale.
Write-ff of products and raw materials
If you use Ingredients, Dotykačka also offers raw material Write-off. Write-off is a standard payment method in Dotykačka. Setting up Write-off is very simple:
1.In the Application Settings, activate the Write-off in the Payment settings section.
2.This payment method can then be found in the Payment dialog.
3.By default, charge the products you need to write off and "pay" the bill using the Payment Method Write-off.
4.If you add a note (e.g. the reason for the write-off) to the bill paid in this way, it will be written into all products - raw materials - that are being written off.
5.The products will be written off including their raw materials.
