Creating / Editing Menu Lists

Menu Lists are where your recipes will be stored in the system. Think of these as categories to which you can link your menu items. Menu lists are helpful in that they can show you all recipes that exist for a particular category and you can set associated target cost percentages. Menu lists can be created and edited by following these simple steps:


  1. Click the Recipes tab from the navigation menu and click Menu Lists.

  • Menu lists are independent in each of the platforms (Bevager & Foodager).

  • The Reprice indicator is based on the target cost % of the Menu List the recipe is on. To get the most out of the Reprice information you should ensure the Menu List the recipe is on has the correct target Cost %.
