To view ingredients and products movement:
Go to Inventory → Ingredients movements in the management console.
Set the reporting period in the calendar in the upper right corner.
Select a storage from the drop-down list to check movements within kitchen, bar or any other storages.
Select the type of products, e.g. ingredients, products or manufactured dishes and preparations.
Choose a category of ingredients, products, dishes or preparations. For example, the type is “Ingredients” and the category is “Seafood”.
Click on ▼ next to the product unit in the Supplies column to view its supply amount, production and inventory checks.
Click on ▼ in the Expense column to view sales, manual waste, production and inventory checks.
💡 Calculation of products and ingredients food cost is based on supplies and the weighted average cost method.
