Information around Calories on Resource Level

Refer to Product Ideas

Hi team, 

I have a customer who wants to store information about calories on the Resource Level and make this also visible on the Service Order Item Level (and external reports) I have heard this request earlier from other customers, especially in the UK where showing the calories on a menu/offer is often mandatory. (see also https://www.gov.uk/government/news/calorie-labelling-on-menus-to-be-introduced-in-cafes-restaurants-and-takeaways) 

Do we consider this for the future? I can imagine that this information can also be relevant for public facing applications such as OEO, ESC, EXP and OSB. 

Currently, I have Note 1 and Note 2 already in use to store external item numbers so I would need an additional field. I am aware how to create a UDF, but since this is a growing trend in the industry, I am wondering how other customers are dealing with this. 

Thanks

Minka

  As we work more with Food and Beverage operations, the users are looking to have this kind of information appear on their operational reports (BEO, Estimate, and Kitchen Production sheets. Definitely think something we should invest in if we're going to continue going after Hotels/Casinos/Resorts or other F/B heavy venues. Recommend a Pendo Feedback so users can vote on it.

  Couldn't agree more Anthony Costantino. I think this is a clear trend in the industry. In addition to that, maybe we could also think for an additional field where customers can store information like the CO2 Footprint. I think this also information customers would like to share on reports towards their customers. 

  And do not forget the Public Facing Apps like OEO,ESC,EXP,OSB when people ordering items..

  Seth Halvaksz let me know if you need more information/action from my side.

  Thanks Tony for the response, and Minka for creating the Pendo feedback post.

  Tagging Richard Marmura on this since Tony specifically mentioned reporting and Carissa Harrison since this is related to price lists.  I can see where displaying calories on a menu/offer is becoming mandatory.
