Food: From Sales to Inventory

Sales report graphic with POS. Items: burgers, chicken, etc. Total: $452.62. Emphasizes accurate reporting.
Let’s say you sold 10 chicken wings, 20 chicken fajitas, and 8 chicken soup at the end of a Friday.
That data will help WISK tell how much chicken(lb.) you sold.
In this instance, you sold 16lbs of chicken.
When you did your inventory yesterday, you had 24lbs of chicken in your freezer
After you closed, you counted again and saw that you had 5lbs of chicken left in your freezer. This means that your actual usage of chicken was 19lbs.
[Beginning count 24lbs - Ending 5lbs]
You should have 8lbs left. WISK tells you that you used 3 lbs more than you actually sold in just one day.

Optimize Your  Food Margins with WISK

Use WISK invoice scanner to update costs instantly. Example: Chicken fajitas, $2.87 cost, $12.00 menu price.

Imagine you're selling a chicken fajita and making a $9.13 profit per order. Now, what if your supplier increased their costs, and your profit dropped to just $5 without you realizing it? You’d still be selling at the same price but losing money. With WISK, this won’t happen. By scanning your invoices, WISK updates your costs in real-time.

If a cost change occurs, you’ll get an alert, so you can decide whether to adjust your pricing. This ensures your margins stay intact and your business remains profitable. Real-time cost tracking means you’ll always know the exact cost of your ingredients, keeping your profits secure with every chicken fajita sold!

Get an idea of how WISK notifies you whenever an item cost goes up

Imagine you're selling chicken fajitas at $10 each, expecting a 20% cost percentage. Without noticing, the cost of chicken rises. Six months later, you discover you're losing $1 per chicken fajita. Thanks to WISK's cost alerts, you’re notified in real-time, enabling you to adjust your price and prevent $6,000 in losses.

When you did ur inventory yesterday, you had 7.5 Tequila X(750mL) bottles of in your stockroom.
After you closed, you counted and saw that you had 2.5 Tequila X(750mL) bottles left of in your stockroom. This means that your actual usage of Tequila X was 5 bottles.
[Beginning count 7.5 - Ending 2.5]
You should have 6.5 bottles left. WISK tells you that you used 4 bottles more than you actually sold in just one day.

Maximize Your Beverage Margins with WISK

WISK syncs invoices with POS. Real-time cost updates for recipe costing (lime, triple sec, tequila: $3.89).

Imagine you're serving a margarita with a gross profit of $11.11 per drink. Now, what if your supplier increased the cost of tequila or other ingredients, and your profit unexpectedly dropped to $7? You’d still be selling at the same price but unknowingly losing money. With WISK, this is no longer a concern. By scanning your invoices, WISK keeps your ingredient costs updated in real-time.

If there’s a cost change, you’ll get notified instantly, allowing you to adjust your pricing and maintain your margins. Real-time tracking ensures your margarita costs and pricing stay accurate, so you can confidently keep your $11.11 profit intact for every glass sold!
