You use this procedure to create an ingredient label as part of a label set.

Procedure

  1. Create a label set (see Product Labeling Process).

  2. Choose the Ingredient Label subview on the Label Definition main view, and choose Assign Data.

  3. Select a data origin. You can use the following as the data origin:

    • The specification you entered when creating the label set.

    • All recipes created in the PLM Web UI that use this specification as primary output.

      Note Note

      Labeling in PLM Web UI can only create label sets for recipes created in Recipe Development (PLM-WUI-RCP).

      End of the note.

    After selecting a data origin, the content of the ingredient list is displayed with the corresponding calculated values for each ingredient.

The following steps are optional for the ingredient label:

  1. Generate language-dependent drafts for the label, and edit the data if needed.

  2. Add footnotes to the ingredient label. You can create footnotes in phrase management.

    For more information, see Phrase Management (EHS-BD-PHR).

  3. Edit the items in the list. You can choose from the following options:

    • Edit declared values

    • Create and delete declaration groups

    • Hide an item or its declared value from the draft

    • Sort the list

    • Explode ingredients to their components

    • Define a hierarchy by using declaration groups

    • Copy target location-relevant settings from one target location to another

    • Undo and reset your list-related actions

    • Aggregate ingredients

      To aggregate ingredients, select the relevant rows in the ingredient list and choose Aggregate.

      Aggregation is possible if at least one of the following criteria is met:

      • The ingredients have the same specification description

      • The ingredients have different specification descriptions, but the phrase assigned to them is the same

      Example Example

      Different kinds of salt can exist in an ingredient list. Salt may be the same declared name for salt (coarse) and salt (fine). You can select both of these items and aggregate them below the item Salt. The system then adds their quantities automatically.

      End of the example.
    • Combine the quantity of ingredients fully or partially

      To combine ingredients, select the items and choose Combine. A dialog box appears, where you set the name of the newly created combined item and the percentages of the original items that are to be combined. The system then creates the new item, calculates its quantity, and adjusts the quantities of the original items.

      Example Example

      An ingredient list contains the items water and apple juice concentrate. You can combine these two items to appear as apple juice.

      End of the example.

Note Note

Since ingredient and qualitative data information is package-size-independent, it is only possible to create those types of lists once. Since a label set contains multiple package sizes, and on one package you can have several sets of size-dependent component information, these items are defined more than once.

End of the note.
