Workload impact

An important feature in the product tab is the impact on the workload. This is linked with the capacity/timeslot at preparation location level.

You can set the impact this product has on the workload.

example:

We set the impact of a pizza maison at 5 (product level)



In one of our production locations, we defined the total capacity of our Take away service per 30 min is 1000 (Preparation location level => applicable service => timelsots)



It will be possible to create 200 pizza maisons per 30 minutes between 11:00 and 14:00 on Mondays.
It won’t be possible to order for this specific 30 min time slot if this is exceeded.


Options

We will now discuss the most important features within options.

The options & variants section allows you to really start making different versions of the same product.

Let's take a pizza maison (10 euro) as an example.

You can define a pizza maison large (13 euro) and a pizza maison Bambino (9 euro) as a variation.
Options then allow you to even dig deeper. A good example can be your choice of dough, add extras, things you don’t want on the pizza, add gluten free buns, ... You can define rules - requirements - specific amounts - … This video shows you how this can be easily set up.
