Specified ingredients are ingredients added by a customer to a recipe specification. It is used to list the ingredients that must be included or excluded in the product recipe provided by the suppler.
- For any specified ingredient, the 'Allowance’ must be filled out (is mandatory). 'Ingredient Precision,' and 'Ingredient Quantity' are needed for more precise validation but they are not required. Any other configurable attributes, such as 'Country of Origin' or 'Organic' (if applicable) are optional to specify.
Specified Compound Ingredient
When a user specifies ingredients for a recipe, they search the ingredient library. When a compound ingredient is chosen, a copy of it is made as a specified compound ingredient so that each instance can add its own unique sub-ingredients to it, and parameters can be attached to it without permanently attaching that parameter to the library compound ingredient. Since parameters may be different based on how the compound ingredient is used, this keeps the library ingredients neutral.
