The Supply feature helps you keep tabs on ingredient quantities in stock and their costs. By regularly updating your supplies, you ensure accurate cost tracking, which in turn helps maintain a clear view of your profits.

Let’s add a supply:

  1. Go to Inventory → Supplies in the management console.

  2. Click Add.

  3. Enter supply time and date.

  4. Select an existing supplier or create a new one.

  5. Select a storage location where the ingredients are supplied to.

  6. Select supplied products and ingredients.

  7. Enter their quantity and price per piece or total amount without tax.

  8. Ordering units come handy when you supply ingredients in packs or boxes.

    ☝️ For example, if you receive tomatoes in crates, you can specify that unit here.

  9. Some products might have specific taxes. Select a Tax if necessary.

  10. Got more items? Just click +Add more.

  11. Once done, scroll up and start with the Payment. Click Add payment.

  12. Select a payment Account, time, date and sum.

  13. Scroll down and click Save to wrap it up.

Retrospective supplies

If you forget to add a supply on time, no worries. You can edit the date of a supply or even create one with a previous date.

To add retrospective supplies or edit their dates:

  1. Go to Inventory → Supplies in the management console.

  2. Click Add at the top right.

  3. Enter the desired supply time and date.

  4. Proceed with entering ingredients and payments.

  5. Click Save.

You can add retroactive supplies within the current inventory period only. For instance, if your last inventory check was on September 1st and today is September 30th, you can add retroactive supplies between September 30th and September 1st.

☝️ To quickly add products to a supply, use the import supplies option or scan ingredient barcodes while filling out the form.
