Ingredients

Field	Type	Default	Description
Ingredient	item reference	recipe component	Component item copied from the current product recipe or added as a one-off line.
SKU	text snapshot	current item SKU	Component SKU snapshot for history.
Basis	enum	recipe basis	per_unit for discrete output or per_batch for batch output.
Planned quantity	decimal + unit	scaled recipe quantity	Planned consumption after scaling the recipe by output quantity or batches.
Actual quantity	decimal + unit	0	Filled when stock is consumed for output.
Actual cost	money	0	Filled from consumed lots and inventory valuation during completion.
Lot strategy	enum	fifo	fifo, lifo, or custom.
Pick status	enum	not_picked	not_picked, in_progress, or picked.
Picked quantity	decimal + unit	0	Quantity reserved or picked against the ingredient line.
Notes	text	blank	Ingredient-specific internal note when present.

Batches And Outputs

Field	Type	Default	Description
Batch number	generated integer	next sequence	Sequential batch row for batch manufacturing orders.
Batch status	enum	pending	pending, in_progress, or completed.
Planned output quantity	decimal + unit	recipe output	Quantity expected from the batch or discrete completion.
Completed quantity	decimal + unit	0	Finished quantity recorded from output completion.
Output lot	lot reference	generated when completed	Finished lot created from production output.
Output disposition	enum	available	available or blocked.
Unit cost	money	calculated	Material cost per output unit on the output row. Order totals and produced stock costing also absorb operation cost.
Reversed quantity	decimal + unit	0	Quantity reversed from a recorded output row.
Completed at	timestamp	blank	Time the batch or output row was recorded.

Operation Costs

Field	Type	Default	Description

Crew size	decimal	1	Number of people or units used in the planned operation cost.
Planned minutes	integer	recipe duration	Planned duration.
Loaded rate / hour	money	resource rate	Resource cost rate used for operation cost.
Planned cost total	money	calculated	Snapshotted planned operation cost.
Actual crew size	decimal	blank	Reserved schema field; current execution does not record actual labour inputs.
Actual minutes	decimal	blank	Reserved schema field; current execution does not record actual labour duration.
Actual operation cost	money	calculated	Absorbed operation cost recorded for the order output.
Sort order	integer	row order	Display order copied from the product Production tab.
