Byproducts for post-consumer processing and reconstitution

Specify negative quantities of byproducts to account for post-consumer processing or reconstitution.

For example, suppose you make pastry dough. Another company purchases the dough and produces the final pastry by frying the dough in oil. As it is cooked, the dough absorbs oil and increases its content of fat.

Both the formula sold (Pastry Dough) and the post-consumer product information (Cooked Pastry) must be on the label.



The label on the pastry dough includes the properties of the uncooked dough and the final, cooked pastry. A label that is produced from the pastry dough formula provides the first part of the label.



To produce the second part, which includes parameter changes, copy the formula and add a negative byproduct and calculate. The parameters of the formula increase. Do not add oil to the Item Lines tab because you do not sell the cooked pastry; you sell uncooked dough.
