Built around your working day

More clarity. Better coordination.

Separate ordering from receiving

Make differences explainable

Compare physical counts with recorded stock and trace movements to their references and recorded actors.

Inventory & procurement / 01

Take supplies through a controlled purchasing flow

Build a purchase order with the supplier, items, quantities and unit costs. Submit it for approval, then record delivered quantities against the approved order with the receiving evidence.

  • Save and review the purchase-order draft
  • Keep approval and receipt permissions separate
  • Receive actual deliveries and retain the goods receipt

How it connects

  1. Submit the purchase order
  2. Approve the purchase
  3. Receive delivered stock

Inventory & procurement / 02

Bring ingredient quantities into your cost picture

Set a recipe’s inventory source and ingredient mappings, then review the complete recipe before saving. Use Cost & pricing to inspect ingredient costs, allocated overhead and the selling price.

  • Map ingredients to inventory items and units
  • Review quantities and the stock source
  • Inspect item costs alongside the selling price

How it connects

  1. Map the ingredients
  2. Review recipe costs
  3. Use the saved recipe

Turn stock differences into a reviewable record

Start a stock count for the intended period, record physical quantities and review the difference. Open movement history to inspect receipts, transfers, wastage and adjustments before closing the count.

  • Record counted quantities for the selected period
  • Investigate linked movements and recorded actors
  • Resolve count issues and confirm the close

How it connects

  1. Count physical stock
  2. Review the differences
  3. Close the count

How it comes together

Follow the supplies beyond the delivery door

Keep purchasing, stock movements and physical checks connected throughout the period.

  1. Request and approve

    Review the supplier, purchasing units, quantities and costs before approving the purchase.

  2. Receive the delivery

    Record quantities physically received, including batch and expiry details where applicable.

  3. Track stock activity

    Follow recorded movement, recipe usage, transfers and approved stock changes.

  4. Count and reconcile

    Enter the physical quantities, investigate differences and review the completed count.

A few good questions

Let’s make
things clear.

Talk to our team
Does creating a purchase order increase stock?

No. Purchase orders and stock receipts are separate steps. The receiver records the quantities physically delivered against an approved or partially received order, then reviews and confirms the stock receipt.

When does a saved recipe affect inventory?

The saved recipe becomes the menu item’s current bill of materials for future sales. Saving the recipe itself does not change stock quantities. Check ingredient units, inventory mappings and the source location before saving.

Can the team investigate a stock-count difference?

Yes. Count review shows expected and counted quantities and values. Stock history lets authorised staff inspect movement references, locations and recorded actors, with CSV export for further review.
