Reviewing the results

After you specify the criteria for the replacement in the Ingredient Replace form, click Replace. The results of the replacement are shown in the Results tab. The Ingredient Replace form is read-only.

In the Results tab, you can see this information:

  • Original formula
  • New formula if you specified a Create Rule on the Main tab
  • Quantity of the original ingredient
  • Quantity of the replacement ingredient

When you create a formula using the Create Rule that is linked with the Copy Method. In case the formula fails while validation, the text specified in the MessageList() function on the Copy method is displayed in the Comment column on the Result tab.

If you chose to find all levels in the formula hierarchy, then those formulas and their levels are shown, too. Level 0 identifies the formula that directly consumes the replaced material or formula.

The new quantities are calculated using the criteria that is specified in the Ingredient Replace form. See the Ratio % and the Retain Original Yield field descriptions in Specifying the replacement criteria.
