Categories and lists

Manage the categories, sizes, cooking methods and order types used across ChefAdmin.

These lists feed the dropdowns in the rest of ChefAdmin. New companies start with a standard set of categories, so you may not need to change much.

Categories

Settings > Categories. Choose the kind of category at the top:

  • Ingredient Category
  • Sub Recipe Category
  • Menu Category
  • Kitchen Section

Click Add New, type the name and save.

Deleting a category

A category is deleted straight away, even if items use it. Move items to another category first.

Sizes

Settings > Sizes. The sizes you offer, such as Regular and Large. Used in Combos. A size used in a recipe cannot be deleted.

Cooking Methods

Settings > Cooking Methods. A simple list, added and edited the same way as sizes.

Order Types

Settings > Order Types. How orders come in, such as dine-in, takeaway or delivery. Added and edited the same way as sizes.
