Full recipe costing. Calculates production cost, retail price (with and without tax), food cost percentage, factor, markup, gross profit and gross profit percentage for all recipes, menus and functions/events.

Any changes affecting recipe costs are updated on screen immediately. i.e. Change the retail price (below) to $16 and all profit figures (food cost percentage, etc.) are immediately recalculated and displayed.

Products failing to meet profitability targets are highlighted on screen and exception reports let you see poorly performing products. (The example below fails to meet the target Food Cost Percentage of 25%, hence all the price and profit figures are highlighted in red. You can set your own profit target.

Function/Event Costing. Calculate full costings for functions or events. Calculated values include total and per cover costs and prices.

Recipe scaling. Scale recipe quantities by either a scale factor or to produce a particular total recipe quantity.

Drag-'n-drop or search/insert recipe building. Drag ingredients from a browser list into a recipe's ingredient list. Alternatively, search for component ingredients and sub-recipes by name to insert into recipes.

Market lists. Generate market (order) lists for menus and functions/events. You can even combine any number of menus or functions into a single market list for ordering.

Stocktake. Enter your stocktake information to produce extended stock value reports. Stock reports include detail and summary information as well as quantity variations.

NOTE: This is not a 'live' inventory system and won't tell you what you have in stock at any point in time. This system is designed for business that need to calculate stock values at the end of a set trading period, without the laborious data entry and expense of a full inventory system.

Purchase Tracking. Store purchase invoice details and print both details and summary reports.

COGS. Combine costing, purchase and stocktake data to generate a Cost of Goods Sold report for your business.

Allergen Tracking Associate allergens with ingredients and all recipes, menus and functions using those ingredients will 'inherit' those allergens. Print list of all allergens in your recipes, menus and functions.

Pictures. Store and prints pictures (32bit color) with recipes and ingredients.

Nested recipes. Embed sub-recipes within recipes to an unlimited depth. i.e. Create a recipe for Beef Stock and use that stock as an ingredient in as many other recipes as you wish. Later on if you decide to use a different Beef Stock recipe, just modify the sub-recipe and all other recipes referencing the Beef Stock recipe are automatically updated! Resort Restaurant also displays a graphical representation of your recipe's structure showing component sub-recipes/ingredients and their required quantities.
