Delete or Deactivate a Recipe

Delete a Recipe

Recipes can be deleted as long as the following are true:

1. The recipe is not an ingredient for another recipe

2. The recipe has not been included on a transaction

3. The recipe is not connected to a menu item

If a recipe meets the above criteria, the recipe can be deleted by opening the record, hovering over the Save menu, and clicking Delete.

Deactivate a Recipe

If a recipe does not follow or cannot be updated to follow the above criteria, then a recipe can at least be marked as Inactive so that the record remains in R365 but can no longer be used.

To do this, navigate to and open the desired Recipe form by clicking it from the Recipes list. On the General tab do both of the following:

1. Uncheck the Active checkbox.  

2. Update the name of the Recipe to ensure that other users will not mistakenly use the Recipe. Adding ‘ZZZ DO NOT USE’ will ensure that this item is moved to the bottom of the alphabetized list, and it will not be confused with any other similar item.

When complete, ensure to Save the record

If a Recipe was copied, users must update it and then delete the original Recipe record.
