Ingredient Identifiers (Ingredient To Track)

What are Ingredient Identifiers?​

Ingredient Identifiers are ingredients which you want to track that may exist in a product. In our system, you can capture as much nutritional information about a product as you desire, with Ingredient Identifiers, you can setup tags which will call out whether a specific product has an ingredient or nutrient that you would like to track. For example: “Gluten” can be setup so that you can view all products and recipes that contain gluten in your system. You can tag one or more of these identifiers to a product, where relevant. This will allow you to quickly locate items containing these ingredients in our system.
