Make a recipe without leaving the processing screen

The hard part of recipes was never the balloon counts. It was the name. A recipe only attaches when its name matches the line item on your invoice, so setting one up meant going to the Recipes tab and typing the name from memory.

The name is filled in for you

When you process an invoice and an item has no recipe, it shows up in the matching pop-up as it always has. Next to it there is now a + Make a recipe button.

Click it and a short form opens with the item name already filled in, copied straight from the invoice. Type the recipe specs, save and the recipe attaches to the work order you are in the middle of. You can also elect to have it auto-match on its own every time that item appears.

If a recipe with that name already exists, the button says so and picks it for you instead of making a duplicate.

Clearer about credits

The same pop-up now plainly notes that your credit for the invoice has already been used at that point and that the work order is sent once you finish the steps. If you try to close or reload the page partway through, your browser will ask you to stay, so a work order cannot be lost to a stray refresh.
