Overview
The Recipes tab shows all your recipes with key details: recipe name, sub-recipe status, site assignments, cost, and current status. You can edit individual recipes or make bulk changes across multiple recipes at once.
Viewing Recipes
Site-specific view: Select a specific site from the top left dropdown to see only recipes assigned to that site.
All sites view: Select "All Sites" to see every recipe in your system, including recipes not assigned to any site.
Editing a Recipe
To edit a recipe, find it in the Recipes tab and click the Edit button next to the recipe name. Make your changes and remember to save.
Bulk Editing Multiple Recipes
Save time by editing multiple recipes at once—useful when you need to assign several recipes to a new site or change the status of seasonal items.
How to bulk edit recipes
Use the checkboxes on the left to select the recipes you want to edit
Three options appear in the top right: Assign to Site(s), Change Status, and Delete
To assign recipes to sites:
Click Assign to Site(s)
Click Add
Tick all the sites where these recipes should be available
Save your changes
To change recipe status:
Click Change Status
Select Active, Draft, or Archive
Confirm the change
To delete recipes:
Click Delete
Confirm you want to permanently remove these recipes
⚠️ Warning: Deleted recipes cannot be recovered.
Recipe Status Options
Recipes can have three different statuses:
Active - Recipe is available for use at assigned sites
Draft - Recipe is saved but not yet available at any site. Use this for recipes you're still building or testing.
Archive - Recipe is hidden from all sites but can be reactivated later. Perfect for seasonal items or recipes you're temporarily discontinuing.
Changing recipe status
Find the recipe in the Recipes tab
Click Edit
Use the Status dropdown to select Active, Draft, or Archive
Save your changes
When to archive vs. delete
Archive a recipe when:
It's seasonal and you'll use it again (e.g. pumpkin spice latte)
You're temporarily taking it off the menu but might bring it back
You're revising the recipe and want to preserve the original
Delete a recipe when:
It's permanently discontinued and you won't use it again
You created a duplicate by mistake
The recipe should never have been in the system
💡 Tip: When in doubt, archive rather than delete. You can always delete an archived recipe later, but you can't recover a deleted one.
