Inventory Control

Efficient inventory management is key to preventing wastage and pilferage. HungryBee POS offers a robust inventory tracking system that integrates directly with sales.

Concepts

• Ingredients: Raw materials used to prepare dishes (e.g., Flour, Cheese, Tomato Sauce).
• Products: Finished goods sold to customers (e.g., Pizza, Pasta).
• Recipes: The mapping that tells the system "1 Pizza uses 200g Flour + 50g Cheese".

Adding Ingredients

1. Go to Inventory > Ingredients.
2. Click New Ingredient.
3. Enter details: Name, Unit (kg, liter, pcs), Cost Price.
4. Set a Low Stock Threshold. The system will alert you when stock falls below this level.
5. Click Save.

Recipe Mapping (Auto-Deduction)

To automate stock tracking, you must link products to ingredients.

1. Go to Menu > Products.
2. Edit a product (e.g., "Chicken Burger").
3. Go to the Inventory/Recipe tab.
4. Add ingredients:
   • Chicken Patty: 1 pc
   • Burger Bun: 1 pc
   • Lettuce: 20g
5. Save the product.

Stock Adjustments (Audits)

Sometimes physical stock doesn't match digital records due to wastage or spoilage. Use Stock Adjustments to correct this.

1. Go to Inventory > Adjustments.
2. Select the ingredient.
3. Choose Reason: "Wastage", "Damaged", "Theft", or "Internal Use".
4. Enter the quantity to remove (or add).
5. Save. This will update the current stock level and record the loss.

Purchase Orders (Restocking)

When you buy new stock from suppliers:

1. Go to Inventory > Purchases.
2. Click New Purchase.
3. Select the Supplier.
4. Add ingredients and quantities purchased.
5. Enter the total cost.
6. Finalizing this adds the stock to your current inventory.
