The Change

A new option ‘May’ has been added as a state when inputting Intolerance Data. It is used in circumstances where something is not intentionally added to an ingredient/recipe, but may be present of other reasons such as cross contamination. In addition, the recipe intolerance calculation method has been enhanced to reduce the need to enter values for all recipe ingredients in order for the system to display populated intolerance values.

Release Date: 27-Aug-2015
 

Reason for the Change

This update has been made due to multiple requests from customers.
 

Customers Affected

This option is available to all StarChef and StarChef Light  customers.
 

Release Notes

Intolerance Data Tab

Follow the path: Ingredients > Find an Ingredient > Nutrition Tab > Intolerance Data > Click the Edit Button.
 

• Select ‘May’ from the drop-down list and click the ‘Save’ button.

 

• Fig 2 above shows the saved Intolerance Data information with the new ‘May’ option.

NOTE: It will not be possible to select ‘May’ as a value for intolerances in the Dietary group (eg: ‘Suitable for Vegetarians’).
 

Changes to Recipe Auto-Calculation

In response to customer feedback we will also change the calculation logic to allow intolerance values to be calculated as ‘Yes’ (except Dietary intolerances) even where other recipe ingredients have a state of ‘-’ (unknown) for the intolerance.

NOTE: Advanced auto-calculation functionality will continue to exclude deselected recipe ingredients as current behaviour.

The table below shows how the auto-calculation functionality has been updated to determine which option to display on a recipe’s intolerance data (except Dietary intolerances).
 

Example No Ingredient 1 Ingredient 2 Ingredient 3 Ingredient 4 Result 1 - - - - - 2 Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes 3 May May May May May 4 No No No No No 5 Yes No Yes No Yes 6 Yes May Yes May Yes 7 Yes May Yes No Yes 8 May No May No May 9 Yes May No - Yes 10 May No - - May 11 Yes - - - Yes 12 May - - - May 13 No - - - -
