Overview
A production document is used in food service and manufacturing contexts where finished products are created from ingredient lists. The document references a recipe (calculation) that defines the required ingredients and their quantities. After conducting, raw materials are deducted and the finished product is added to stock.

TIP
When an item with a linked recipe is added, the system automatically loads the ingredient list from the calculation. Ingredient quantities scale proportionally based on the production quantity.
Recipes and Calculations
Production documents rely on pre-configured recipes (calculations) in the system. Each recipe defines:
- The finished product
- Required ingredients and their quantities per unit
- Expected yield and loss percentages
Make sure recipes are set up in the Guides > Calculations section before creating production documents.

FAQ
Where do I set up recipes?
Recipes are configured in the Guides > Calculations section. Each recipe links a finished product to its ingredient list.
What if an ingredient is out of stock?
The system may prevent conducting if required ingredients are not available in sufficient quantity on the warehouse.
Can I produce multiple items in one document?
Yes. Add multiple finished products to the grid. Each will use its own recipe.
