About Recipe

Recipe uses a recipe item to capture recipe records. A recipe record defines a list of ingredients to produce a product. It also describes a product in terms of its assemblies, sub-assemblies, and basic parts. Each recipe record represents a specific version of that recipe.

What types of recipes are there?

There are three different types of supported recipes:

• Product – Defines a list of ingredients to produce a product.

• Product Group – Defines a list of common ingredients to produce a group of products. For example, the only difference in making bread with sesame seeds versus bread with poppy seeds is the seeds. There would be a common set of ingredients to make the bread.

• Machine – Defines a list of operating parameters for a piece of equipment. These parameters could include temperature and speed.

For each planning reporting point, you can configure:

• A machine recipe to use.

• A list of product recipes to use.

When is a recipe record created?

The following list describes when a recipe record is created:

• An operator can add a recipe record manually in AVEVA Production Management.

• An operator can clone an existing recipe record manually in AVEVA Production Management.

How does AVEVA Production Management support recipe version control?

Recipe creates a new version number every time an operator creates a new recipe record. The version number cannot change.

Scaling recipes

Recipe enables recipe fields to scale according to the required quantity for the Planning record.
