several procedures in one STEP. The process of entering a
recipe into the software allows the operator to:
1. Find the recipe fast, edit the ingredients and method.
2. Adjust the yield in a flash and print the recipe.
3. Store yield results of a group of recipes and print a
shopping list.
4. Update the Cost of a single recipe or all recipes
residing in the file.
5. Automatically accesses the Inventory software data for
current cost and packaging information.

The complex job of converting weights and measures and
finding equivalent amounts of food products is made easy.
An equivalent measure chart pop up screen plus access to a
large resource file of information on food equivalents
eliminates finding this data in many text books.

Menu Management software completes the third STEP by access-
ing the recipe data to Cost & Analyse Complete Menus.
