Add or remove a recipe
Learn how to add, make changes, or remove a recipe for products, variations, or components in Craftybase.
After you've created a product, variation, or component, you can add a recipe at any time. If you need to make changes to a recipe, you can edit or remove it.
To get started, sign in to your Craftybase account and click Products in the main menu. If you're adding or removing a recipe for a component, click Components.
What We'll Cover:
Add a recipe
To add a new recipe:
- Choose a product or component from the list.
If you're adding or removing a recipe for a variation of your product, choose Variation in the Display section on the sidebar.
- In the Recipe section, click to add a new recipe.
- Enter how many of this product you can make in a batch and the estimated time it takes to create this batch.
- Add the materials for your recipe using one of the following:
- Add Material: Search for existing materials or add a new material and quantity.
- Copy Recipe From: Search for a product or variation attributes, and copy its recipe.
- Add any notes to your recipe if needed. Then, click Save Recipe.
Edit a recipe
To make changes to a recipe:
- Click in the main menu and choose Recipes.
- Open the recipe and click Edit.
- Make changes to the recipe and click Save Recipe.
If you edit a recipe for a product with one or more manufactures, the changes won't affect any existing manufacture material costs. To recalculate your material costs for existing manufactures, remove the manufactures. When you re-add them, Craftybase calculates your material costs based on the revised recipe.
Remove a recipe
To remove a recipe:
- Click on the main menu and choose Recipes.
- Open the recipe and click Edit.
- Click Remove Recipe.
- Click Yes, Remove Recipe to confirm.
When you remove a recipe, this will remove any pricing guidance information for your product. It won't impact how Craftybase calculates your inventory.
