Inventory & costing
Recipe costing and inventory that start from the plate.
Ordering well starts with knowing what goes into every dish. Measured recipes, ingredient costs, sales and counted stock come together so you can see food cost by dish and plan what the restaurant needs next.
Recipes with real costs
Record portions, ingredient quantities, yields and substitutions for each menu item. Ingredient purchase costs flow into the recipe, so the food cost of every dish follows the prices you actually paid.
- Portions, yields and substitutions per item
- Food cost by dish from purchase prices
- Price changes flagged when a supplier’s cost moves
Counts, pars and prep
Count sheets match how your storage is laid out. Pars and order guides turn counts into suggested quantities by supplier and case size, and prep lists show what the kitchen needs ready for the day’s expected sales.
- Count sheets by storage area
- Pars and order guides by supplier
- Prep lists from expected sales
Purchasing and the month-end close
Approved purchase orders, deliveries and vendor credits keep their documents attached. At month end, the counted inventory is valued and its cost moves into the statements your accountant reviews.
- Purchase orders with delivery photos
- Vendor credits kept against the order
- Month-end inventory valued and posted to the books
Questions
Inventory & recipe costing:
straight answers.
Still have something on your mind?
Email the teamCan it order directly from US Foods or Sysco?
An approved purchase order goes to the supplier through a direct connection where the supplier offers one, or by automated email, whichever the restaurant prefers.
Does it calculate food cost by dish?
Yes. Recipe quantities and ingredient purchase costs give each dish its food cost, and expected usage follows from sales.
How does inventory reach the books?
The month-end inventory close values the final counts, and an owner or accountant reviews the cost before it posts.
