Inventory CapTops you up to the number you enter.
ReplenishGets the full amount entered, no matter what you already have.
Retainer SalesRestocks an item one of your retainers is already selling.
Craft QualityFor crafted items, pick HQ, NQ, or Quick Synthesis.
What matters most here
Choose the correct amount mode first.
Pick the right quality for crafted items.
Make sure your sourcing rules match what you want MinBeth to do.
Simple HQ explanation
MinBeth does not just make every subcraft HQ for the sake of it. It checks your crafter and works out how much starting quality the final craft needs, then only pushes HQ where it actually helps.
Progress
This is your live status page. It shows what the current order is doing now, what it has already done, and what it is waiting for next.

Current stepShows the task MinBeth is on right now.
Waiting reasonUseful when the queue pauses for a node, weather, travel, stock, or another requirement.
Queue trackingHelps you see how far through the work it is.
First place to checkIf something looks wrong, start here.
Best tip:If MinBeth looks idle, Progress usually explains why. Most of the time it is waiting for something rather than failing.
Crafting
This page is for crafting work. It is where MinBeth handles recipe steps, subcrafts, and final item crafting.

Uses Cypher CraftMinBeth leans on Cypher Craft for craft solving and quality planning.
Subcraft handlingIt works through required ingredients before the final craft.
HQ and NQ supportUseful for either quality target, depending on your order.
Quick SynthesisGood when quality does not matter and you just want quantity.
When to use HQ
Use HQ when the finished item needs to be high quality. If you only need stock quickly, NQ or Quick Synthesis is usually the simpler option.

Important buying note
Market Board buying is for materials and subcrafts used by the order. It does not just buy the finished item for you.
