One of the biggest challenges for today’s restaurant manager in managing food cost is the timely availability of relevant information. Information critical to identifying issues with food cost often comes after that point at which action can be taken to correct the problems. Data coming as the output of corporate processes or after and “end-of-week process make it difficult for the manager to zero-in on causes of food variance.

A core function of the eRestaurant Services Back Office and Enterprise Suite is its ability to provide Real-time inventory and variance information at any count frequency (Daily, Weekly, Period, Day Part). As counts are entered into the Food Management Module, the manager is provided with accurate, timely variance information allowing for swift response to problems or issues.
