Carry out this task
- Save the Before values on the linked tool.
- Add the sealed bags to the existing flour record.
- Calculate & Save the After values on the same item. Check the ID is retained rather than creating another physical item.
Calculation and observed tool result
Before
Stock = 0 × 1000 + 300 = 300 g; floor(300 ÷ 250) = 1 bakesRecorded quantity: 300 g.
After
Stock = 2 × 1000 + 300 = 2,300 g; floor(2,300 ÷ 250) = 9 bakesRecorded quantity: 2,300 g.
What the result means
The delivery adds 2,000 g and increases complete bakes from one to nine.
Limits of this example
Use a different record if the new flour is not interchangeable.
A mistake to avoid
Replacing the whole total with sealed-pack weight would lose the jar remainder.
