• Affects configuration or data? - Yes
• Roles affected: - Ingredient Data Managers

What's Changing?

If Ingredient 'cost price' is made mandatory for Ingredients, it will be mandatory for both parent and alternate Ingredients.

Reason for the Change

To increase the likelihood of all required fields being populated for both parent and alternate Ingredients. Will result in improved data quality for Inventory.

Customers Affected

Available to all customers. Likely to impact Inventory customers because 'cost price' is typically a mandatory field for them.

Release Note Info/Steps

Ingredient field visibility and mandatory requirements are usually configured in User Group settings. Currently, however, 'cost price' is an exception to this. If it is specified as mandatory in global database settings (accessible to Fourth team members only), the 'mandatory' requirement will be applied to all User Groups.
