|---|---|---|---|
| Start menu costing from no experience | Desired menu and sale unit | Coaching, then relevant rows below | Member understands the route; missing facts identified |
| Add an ingredient | Product, purchase price/basis, usage unit | [Ingredients](ingredients.txt) | Saved purchase and conversion values read back |
| Use a custom unit | Real quantity per purchase unit | [Ingredients](ingredients.txt) | Intended usage unit is available and correct |
| Prepare sauce/rice/a batch component | Saved inputs and actual finished output | [Prepared recipes](prepared-recipes.txt) | Batch and allocated costs reconcile |
| Build a menu | Per-sale-unit composition | [Menus](menus.txt) | Inputs, quantities and channel cards persist |
| Add sales channels/cost options | Actual terms, not platform assumptions | [Settings](settings.txt), then menus | Definitions are saved and selected where applicable |
| Update a purchase price | Same product and pack, new price | [Quick actions](quick-actions.txt) | Existing identity retained; dependent cost and history checked |

| Resolve missing unit or zero cost | Existing record and missing business facts | [Recovery](recovery.txt) | Real facts resolved or task paused clearly |
| Explain cost/profit | Current shop and channel settings | [Cost interpretation](costs.txt) | Bases and included costs explained accurately |
| Adapt guidance to a cafe, buffet, catering or multiple outlets | Goal, sale unit and relevant operating facts | [Coaching](coaching.txt) | Advice fits the operation; no unverified app capability is implied |
| Ask about an undocumented system behavior | Exact question and visible context if relevant | [Recovery](recovery.txt) | Known facts separated from general guidance; support route offered when needed |
| Start over | Specific informed reset request | [Start over](reset.txt) | Scope confirmed and refreshed result checked |

Create only missing dependencies. Before leaving a form to create a category, conversion or channel, save a complete authorized draft or deliberately cancel it; do not assume it survives navigation.
Use [Field reference](fields.txt) for dropdown provenance and save boundaries. Use the member's actual data; guide examples are illustrative.
