Creating an item from multiple items ( a build)

[joe@sportsmanspub.com]

In a restaurant, buns are used in may items.

I would be so cool to assign a number to the bun, and a number for burger patty, chicken breast etc.

Then when I entered #500, Chicken Sandwich & Fries, my stock table, INV, etc would update my usage of bun, breats, fries, etc.

I know this is very specialized, but maybe other industries could use it too.

Thoughts?

An involved feature request.

Just add the items manually. e.g. buns, mayo, meat as individual items in the stocktable.

Well, as complicated as it would be, I like it
I've been thinking about the best way to achieve something similar for a Pizza shop in town here, and what I've come up with is a TSR that pops up and lets you "build" something, then rings each item into POS. If I ever getting working for the pizza place, I'll post the program here.

I might play around with some VB.net and see if i can come up with a program that can look at the stock table and compare it to the privious days and come up with sales by stock# then you could set somthing up to tell it what is in all the diffrient #s and it can figure out what was used.
Dont get your hopes up because im not great with .net yet.
