Select the inventory icon from the side bar.

Select add item from the inventory items screen.

Enter the item name and select a category.

💡 When adding the item name it’s good practice to use the name that will appear on the invoice from the supplier. Take the time to ensure spelling is correct, this will ensure that duplicate items will not be created.

Select a type from the dropdown menu.

💡 The type defines where the cost will sit, for example items with a food type will be account for in food GP results.

Now add the purchasing information, Supplier, Supplier code, pack size, Price.

💡 It is good practice to standardise the units of measure you record items in for example count liquids in ml/l or cl/l but not ml/cl/l.

If you have an item that is sold as a unit like a bottle of soft drink enter the unit as each regardless of the volume as you will always count 1 unit.

Standardising units of measure will prevent confusion when counting stock and reconciling stock counts.

Assign the product to a Storage area choose a storage area from the drop down menu.

💡Assigning items to storage areas helps to streamline you count, create storage areas for the different areas of your restaurant and assign only the items that are stored in that area. No more scrolling through lists of stock items!
