What you sell, each made from one of your recipes. The page works out what one costs from the recipe and the packaging, shows the margin on your prices, and writes the catalogue for Shopify and the wholesale price list for your stockists.

“At least” means something in the product has no price yet: a material with no stock cost and no price on the Cost and price page, or packaging with no cost. The margin is worked out on what is known.
How it works
The cost of one is the recipe’s materials, worked out again from the saved recipe and priced at your stock’s average cost or your own price, divided by the units a batch makes, plus the packaging one takes. Labour and overheads are yours to add on the Cost and price page.
The Shopify file uses the columns Shopify’s product import reads and brings every product in as a draft, so nothing goes on sale until you have checked it in your shop. The vendor is the business name from the label maker.
Square imports only its own file, which has your locations and taxes as its columns. In Square, export your item library as CSV (Items, Item library, Actions, Export library) and choose it with “Add to a Square file”. Each product is added to the end of it as a new item, set up like your other items where they all agree, and the file comes back for you to import under Actions, Import library. Nothing already in it changes, stock counts included, and a product it has already, by SKU or by name, is left out.
A barcode is checked against its own last digit, which catches most typing slips. It cannot check that the number is registered to you: that is between you and GS1.
