Point of Sale in the Restaurant Industry

Point of Sale (POS) Systems have transformed the restaurant industry.  Their accuracy has significantly cut down operating costs and mistakes due to human error and has increased the accuracy of customer orders.  No more taking orders on a piece of paper and walking the order back to the kitchen!

Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.

So Much Data to Manage
Restaurants generate a lot of information. Think about it. On a daily basis you’re collecting every item ordered on every guest check, every punch in/out of every employee, every receipt of materials, every entry in the log for deposits, etc. It’s a lot to process to gauge restaurant profitability!  So how do you manage all that information?  One way is to summarize the information across 5 restaurant reports: Daily Sales, Product Mix, Theoretical Food Cost, Labor Actual vs Schedule, Daily Cash.  But when you summarize data you run the risk of losing many specifics and the granularity of the data.
