Tips for Working with Analytics

  1. Check the dashboard daily β€” spot trends and anomalies
  2. Use ABC analysis once a month β€” update the menu based on data
  3. Compare periods β€” to see growth or decline
  4. Export to Excel β€” for detailed analysis and reporting
  5. Track staff KPIs β€” for motivation and training

8. Inventory Management and Cost of Goods

Ingredient tracking

  1. Inventory β†’ Ingredients β†’ add all products with purchase price
  2. Link ingredients to menu items (recipe cards)
  3. The system will automatically calculate the cost of each dish

Recipe card (recipe)

For each dish, specify:

  • List of ingredients with exact weight (grams / ml)
  • Processing loss percentage (shrinkage, boil-down)
  • Finished dish yield

Food cost calculation

Metric Formula Benchmark
Food cost % Cost Γ· Selling price Γ— 100% 25–35%
Markup Selling price Γ· Cost 2.5–4x
Margin (Price - Cost) Γ· Price Γ— 100% 65–75%

Stock control

  • Auto write-off: when an order is closed, ingredients are written off automatically
  • Low stock: push notification when the minimum is reached
  • Stocktaking: reconcile actual stock with system stock
  • Discrepancy report: actual/system deviations to control theft

Purchasing

  • The system suggests a purchase list based on the sales forecast
  • Auto-order from suppliers when minimum stock is reached
  • Purchase history with prices to track inflation

9. Predictive Analytics

Sales forecast

Based on historical data, AI forecasts:

  • Expected number of guests by day/hour
  • Popular items for each day of the week
  • Seasonal trends (summer/winter, holidays)

Recommendations

  • Staff scheduling: how many waiters are needed for each shift
  • Pricing: which items can be increased in price without losing demand
