Nutritional values of the Master data object can be captured and edited with reference to the supplier. The template for nutritional values is globally defined in Administration → Global criteria → criteria type Master data - Nutritional values and assigned to all Master data objects. Algorithms can be used to automate calculations of some of the values (e.g. calorific values).
1)Module Toolbar: For more information, see Master data → Functions & Processes → Basic Master data Functions.
2)These tabs correspond to groups to which the criteria used for nutritional values belong. Click on one of the tabs to display only those criteria that belong to the corresponding group. Tab All displays all nutritional values.
3)Nutritional values designation: The name of the criterion, as defined in Administration → General → Products → Criteria structure. The number of criteria arises from the global template. The list of nutritional values can be managed via Administration → Global criteria → criteria type Master data - Nutritional values. Nutritional values that contain a comment are highlighted. Nutritional values with an assigned algorithm are highlighted as well. Left-click and hold the pointer on the highlighted field to display the algorithm. Algorithms can be assigned via Administration → General → Products → Algorithms. Red text indicates mandatory criteria. This can be defined for individual criteria in Administration → General → Products → Criteria structure → Mandatory drop-down list
4)Unit: A unit can be assigned via Criteria structure in Administration.
5)Nutritional values for individual suppliers: Data fields may contain the following information:
+ Item is present.
- Item is not present.
S Can contain traces of.
N.A. Not applicable.
Numeric value: Can be further accompanied by mathematical signs < and >.
These values can originate from individual components of a recipe that have been converted to the Master data object via the Commit to Master data function. Some of the original components may contain unspecified values (i.e. values set to N.A.). You can enable red highlights of values that come from several recipe components where at least one of them contained N.A.. For more information about the function, please see Master data → Functions & Processes → Basic Master data Functions → Highlighting Unspecified Values.
It is possible to assign a specific threshold value to a criterion in the criteria structure. When the user enters a value that is greater than this threshold, the nutritional value will be automatically displayed as +. When the user enters a lower value, the nutritional value is displayed as -. The color of the sign will change and the threshold value will be shown on mouse-click.
6)Right-clicking the Nutritional values tab opens a context menu with the following options:
Detail: Show comments and tolerance details of all nutritional values for the selected supplier in columns.
Edit - Nutritionals: The user can directly add or remove criteria. The changes will be applied only to the currently opened Master data object. Otherwise it is possible to define the list of nutritional values hierarchically via Administration → Hierarchical criteria and globally via Administration → Global criteria.
Edit - Range values: Specify tolerance values and leave comments. The color of the relevant field changes to indicate it contains data. The details entered will also display in a detailed view. See Allergens to learn more. Please see Declaration → Functions & Processes → Using tolerance range for more information.
Comment supplier: Create a comment for the selected supplier. The color of the supplier changes to indicate that a comment has been added.
Comment criterion: View comments associated with criteria (read-only). Users can comment criteria in Administration → General → Products → Criteria structure → field Comment. Criteria with comments have a different color.
Document: Assign a document to the selected criterion.
Copy supplier data: Enables transferring the selected type of Master data from one supplier to another. For instructions how to use this function, please see Master data → Functions & Processes → Copy Supplier Data.
Generate targeting recipe: A recipe can be created directly from Master data. The program opens the Recipe module, where the created recipe can be viewed or further processed. The targeting recipe can be created only once. If a targeting recipe for the selected Master data object already exists, an information message displays:
Show all criteria: Displays all the criteria even if the user selected a specific tab.
