Things to Keep in Mind
Recipes won’t be paused – Pausing an item won’t automatically pause recipes that use it, so double-check before making changes, if a paused item is in a recipe the stock will continue to be deducted as normal
Pausing applies to all locations – At the moment, you can’t pause an item for a specific location; the pause applies across all locations.
