Ingredient
An ingredient is a raw material or component item that is consumed during production to make a finished product. In Peasy, ingredients are listed in production templates and their inventory is deducted when work orders are completed.
How It Works in Peasy
- Ingredients are added to production templates as part of the recipe (BOM)
- Each ingredient specifies the item and the quantity needed per batch
- Ingredients must exist as items in your inventory for stock to be deducted
- Template gap alerts warn you when ingredient stock is too low to complete a planned production run
- Ingredient costs flow into the finished product's COGS
Why It Matters
Ingredients are the building blocks of production. Tracking them in Peasy ensures you know what raw materials you need to order, how much each production run costs, and whether you have enough stock to start a batch.
