Warning: once you delete a costed ingredient there is no undo. If you accidently delete a costed ingredient you will need to cost that ingredient again.
Warning: deleting a costed ingredient will remove the cost of that ingredient from every recipe that uses that ingredient.
Note: the costing of ingredients within My Recipe Manager requires the following role to be assigned to the users account by a school administrator: 'Recipe Costing'. To view the list of available roles and what they allow a user to do click here.
Note: deleting a costed ingredient does not delete the ingredient itself, it only deletes the cost that has been applied to that ingredient. The ingredient will still be related to every recipe that you have applied it to but without a costing against it.
