Applying global thresholds

You can apply a global threshold to an ingredient. This is an alternative to adding each item individually to an ingredient statement rule and assigning individual thresholds to each item.

In the Item form, enter a value between 0 and 100. The default is 0. Decimals, such as .00001, are also acceptable.

When you add the item to an ingredient statement rule, this value is displayed in the Report Qty% field.

You can override the item’s global threshold value by changing the Report Qty % value in the rule. For items that are not shown on the ingredient statement rule, the global threshold value is used instead of zero.

Suppose the item already exists on the ingredient statement rule and you change the threshold in the Item object. That change is not reflected in the rule. To see the change, you must delete the existing item from the rule and then add the item to the rule.
