Define a Recipe Type

You must define recipe types on a global basis throughout the entire recipe management system. Recipe types are available for every recipe created.

To add a new recipe type

1. On the Recipe Editor dialog box, from the Edit menu, select Recipe Types.

   The Edit Recipe Types dialog box appears.

   

2. In the Name box, type a name for the recipe type (16 characters maximum).

3. In the Description box, optionally type text that describes the recipe type.

4. If you want to set the new Type as the default, select the Default check box.

   Assigning a default type to a recipe is optional and does not prevent validation or approval of the recipe. However, after a type is set as the default, it is automatically assigned to all new recipes.

5. Click Add.
