    Example data.

    See it work

    • Every recipe costed from your real supplier prices.
    • A GP target for the venue, a menu, a category or one dish.
    • A price moves on a confirmed invoice, and every recipe that uses it is re-costed.
    • Each dish sorted Star, Plowhorse, Puzzle or Dog, from what sold.
    • Real prices

      Costed from the invoice, not the price list.

      Every recipe is costed from what your suppliers charge you, line by line. A product's cost changes only when a person confirms an invoice, so a misread price never touches your margin.

    • When butter moves

      One invoice. Every recipe using it, re-costed.

      Confirm an invoice with a new butter price and every locked recipe that uses butter is re-costed. The dishes that slip under their GP target are flagged, so you hear about it this week, not at month end.

    • Four kinds of dish

      Stars, Plowhorses, Puzzles and Dogs, from what sold.

      Each dish is sorted by what it makes and how often it sells, from your point of sale. The Plowhorse that goes out all night on a thin margin is the one to look at first.

    How it works

    1. Set the target

      Set a GP target for the venue, a menu, a category or a single dish.

    2. Cost the recipes

      Every recipe is costed from confirmed supplier prices. Lock it when it is right.

    3. A price moves

      A confirmed invoice changes a cost, and every locked recipe that uses it is re-costed.

    4. Read the plate

      Each dish shows its GP against target, and where it sits: Star, Plowhorse, Puzzle or Dog.

    Questions.

    Does a model work out my GP?
    No. Recipe cost and GP against target are plain arithmetic on your confirmed prices. A model helps read invoices and suggest the likely supplier product for an ingredient, and a person confirms both.
    What does locking a recipe do?
    It marks the recipe as right. A locked recipe is re-costed every time a confirmed invoice moves a price it uses, and a menu lists any recipe not locked before it goes live.
    Can one dish have its own GP target?
    Yes. Targets sit at the venue, a menu, a category or a single dish, so the signature plate and the bowl of chips are each held to their own number.
