The industry

A restaurant is a fast loop from table to kitchen to stock to till

  • Orders and tables are tracked on paper, so mistakes show up at the bill.
  • Food cost is guessed because recipes and stock are not connected.
  • Purchasing follows habit, not what the kitchen used.
  • Daily takings are reconciled by hand at the end of the day.

How the work flows

From the first step to the management dashboard

The till, the recipe list, the store and the books share records, so what is sold reduces stock and the cost of what was cooked is visible.

How it works

Your work, step by step in SmartERP

The routine of this industry, followed from the first step to the money in the bank.

From a served table to a closed till session

Point of SaleAccounting

  1. Waiter or cashier enters the table's order on the point-of-sale till.
  2. The guest pays in cash or by bank transfer; each is a separate payment method.
  3. At closing the cashier counts the drawer and the till shows any difference.
  4. Finance matches the evening deposit and transfers to the day's session in bank and cash.

From a low shelf to a checked supplier delivery

InventoryPurchaseAccounting

  1. A reorder rule flags oil, flour, onions or drinks that fall below the minimum.
  2. The purchasing officer asks named suppliers for a quotation and confirms a purchase order.
  3. The storekeeper receives the delivery and compares it with the order and the supplier's paper bill.
  4. Finance enters the vendor bill against the order and schedules the payment.

From a catering enquiry to an invoice

SalesAccounting

  1. The manager prepares a quotation for a staff lunch or event dinner from the menu.
  2. The client confirms and the quotation becomes a sales order.
  3. After the event the order is invoiced and the client's payment is matched in bank and cash.

From a staff check-in to reviewed hours

EmployeesAttendance

  1. Each cook, waiter and cleaner has one employee record with a job position and department.
  2. Staff check in and out on the shared kiosk screen with a badge or PIN.
  3. The manager reviews the worked hours and corrects a missed check-out; attendance records hours only and does not calculate pay.
