Edit a Recipe

You can make changes to an existing Recipe.

You cannot delete a Recipe, but you can change the Recipe's state to Obsolete if it is no longer being used.

You must check out a Recipe in order to make changes to it, other than changing the state. You can check out a Recipe individually, or you can check out multiple Recipes by using the Multi Select function. For more information, see Multi Select Feature.

To edit a Recipe

1. From the summary page, click the Recipe you want to edit.

2. If you selected a single item on the summary page, click Check Out on the details page. Once the Recipe is checked out, it returns to the Draft state.

   NOTE: You can only change the status if the Recipe is checked in.

3. Once you have made all your changes, click Check In to permanently save your changes. If you do not want to save your changes, you can click Undo Check Out to return all the fields to their original values.

4. Specify the state of your Recipe by clicking the Set State button. You must have permission to change the Recipe state. Once the state is changed to Approved or Obsolete, Draft is no longer an option. You can only change the state from Approved to Obsolete or vice versa. The state of an Approved or Obsolete Recipe automatically changes back to Draft if it’s checked out again.
