Purchase Orders
Create purchase orders from your ingredient list or shopping lists and send them to suppliers.
Once you know what you need to order — whether from a production plan, a shopping list, or just looking at your par levels — you can create purchase orders right inside Recipe Cost Calculator. Select your supplier, pick your ingredients, and the PO populates with your current pricing and pack sizes.
Send the PO to your supplier directly, or export it as a PDF. When the order arrives, receive it in the system and your inventory updates automatically.
Purchase orders tie into the rest of the system naturally. Receive against a PO and your inventory counts update. If the invoice price differs from what you expected, you can update the ingredient price right there. The whole flow — plan, order, receive, cost — stays connected.
Why this matters
Ordering that connects to everything else.
Purchase orders in Recipe Cost Calculator aren't just a PDF generator — they're connected to your ingredients, your inventory, and your costs. When you receive an order, your inventory updates. When prices change, your recipes update. It's one less system to manage separately.
