Want to offer certain items in bulk quantities to customers? With the $75/mo By The Pound ordering system, customers can select an item to purchase in bulk quantities. After confirming your purchase of this add-on with a Sprwt representative, follow this guide to set up your BTP items.
- Define your category options
- By default, each By the Pound order consists of one Protein and one optional Sauce. If necessary, you can change these categories.
- Make sure you've completed your Order configurations for all the ordering systems you plan to use. Click here to see how.
- Create your items
- With a By the Pound order, customers will choose what Ingredient or Sub-Recipe they want to receive in a bulk quantity. You can manage which items are available, and what constitutes “bulk”.
- Any Ingredient/Sub-Recipe offered as a BTP item can still be used in Meal Recipes as normal. BTP Orders will have their own Cooking and Fulfillment reports, but in the Sub-Recipe Report, the items will be combined with other recipes that call for them.
- Go to Admin Dashboard > Kitchen > Ingredients & Sub-Recipes
- Click on an existing Ingredient/Sub-Recipe to offer it as a BTP item, or create a new one.
- Scroll past the Cooking Instructions to the By The Pound section.
- CATEGORY: Turn on the Show as XXX toggle for the category (or categories) that this item will be offered in.
- AMOUNT: Under Measure (per Lbs), list the amount that constitutes 1 pound of this item. (If a customer selected 1 as their quantity option, how much would they receive?)
- The unit that appears is the same as the Base Unit you’ve listed for the Ingredient/Sub-Recipe itself under Base Info.
- PRICES: Under Price per Lbs, list the price that each pound of this item will cost.
