Page Comparison

The Maintenance page is the place for the Area Director or Decision Logic Administrator to construct and update the production sheets that they assign to stores.

Users must have Production Sheet Entry and Production Sheet Setup permissions to access the full functionality of the Production Sheet. Users who have New Production Sheet Setup enabled but set on security ‘view or enter', will be able to access the setup page and click on edit to see more, but they will not be able to move items or make any changes to the page.

Clients who only want store-level managers to use New Production Sheet Entry but not edit or change New Production Sheet Setup must have both pages enabled but do the following setup in profile maintenance:

• New Production Sheet Entry

  • security: change

• New Production Sheet Setup

  • security: view

• In the first row of cells set a Minimum need value in days for the a minimum amount of days needed to prep this item

• In the second row of cells set a Maximum need value in days in order to max out the shelf life.

• In the example below, Prep Tomato has a shelf life of 24 hours. This tells us the item should be prepped every day. Set Min and Max both = 1

How do we define our Min and Max Days?

When defining min and max on days, the idea is that you want to Max out your shelf life while not over-prepping. A few examples below can help: 

• Start by setting all min to 1 day.

• Example: item with a 3-day shelf life

• May want min “need” just to get by for

  todays

  today's sales? Max = 1

• Todays and tomorrows sales? Max = 2

• Today’s w/ 50% buffer to account for waste or additional sales? Max = 1.5

Another way is to think about how frequently do you want to prep this item?

• 3 days for 3 days shelf life = Max 3 days

• 2 days with a 50% buffer = Max 2.5 days

• 1-day lettuce with .25 buffer for waste (so you don’t have to prep again later) = Max 1.25 days

Also, consider the different types of prepped items

• Shelf stable – those with a longer shelf life, go ahead and set Max to max out the shelf life

• Shelf sensitive items – those that expire after 1 day, set max to 1 day

Shelf Life Considerations:

• Shelf Stable – the health department may define an item as having a 7-day shelf life. 

• Restaurant

  The restaurant may drop shelf life to

  to

  a 5-day max for quality

 Note, you must enter the Min and Max values as a whole or decimal number. The Min prep value must be greater than zero, and the Min prep value must be less than the Max prep value.

Production Sheet Shelf Life Integration

If a prepped item has a shelf life set in Prepped Item Maintenance or in Recipe Book, that shelf life will be displayed once you select it. This feature lets you know the shelf life on an item while you are planning out the Min and Max prep amounts.Image Removed
