How do Nutrition Fact Panels from Classic transfer to Genesis Foods?
All Labels will migrate over with their associated recipes as .png files located in the attachments section of the recipe
Is it possible to archive or delete a specific version of a recipe without affecting the entire recipe?
Genesis Foods is designed to keep all versions of a recipe linked together to maintain a complete history of the food item. Individual versions cannot be archived or deleted independently. We recommend making a copy of the specific version and then archiving the original recipe. This allows you to start fresh with a clean version history.
Is it possible to delete a recipe or ingredient that has already been approved?
Approved recipes and ingredients can only be archived. Archiving keeps the item saved in the system but allows it to be excluded from standard search results.
Is there a limit for how many versions a recipe can have?
No, there is no set limit to the number of versions you can have for a recipe.
