Internal Products and Where Your Data Comes From

Internal products are the things you make for your own use rather than sell: a sauce, a brine, a filling that goes into something else. They were previously called internal raw materials. The name changed because that is what they are, intermediate products you manufacture, and the old name borrowed a word from a section they are not in.

Find them under Products > Internal products.

The list is organisation-wide

The banner at the top says 'Managed at organisation level', and it is not decoration. Raw materials are shared across every workspace in your organisation, so editing one changes every product that uses it, everywhere. This is deliberate: one ingredient should mean one thing across your whole portfolio.

The columns answer the questions people actually open this list to ask:

Following an ingredient to what contains it

Some rows carry a small chain icon with a number next to the name. That means the item sits inside something else, and the number is how many containers it appears in.

Expanding the row shows where it is used. Hovering the chain shows the full path without leaving the list. This exists because an ingredient inside a sub-recipe used to be invisible here: you could see the sub-recipe, but not what it was made of, and the impact of the thing you actually buy was hidden a level down.

Which data is yours

The Raw material origin card on the Home dashboard counts your sources by where the data comes from:

Each source counts once, so a trace ingredient counts the same as a major one. For the contribution-weighted picture, which is what actually moves your footprint, open a product report.
