• Imports POS Sales: Xpress Menu can import your Sales Mix directly from your POS. We have active interfaces to the most common POS systems.

• Provides Up-To-Date Plate Costs: Recipe costs and ingredient prices are automatically updated with each new invoice providing up to the minute plate costs. With wholesale costs rising fast this is a mission critical aspect of F&B management.

Inventory Xpress is the foundation module for building your Xpress Way cost control tool kit. In addition to speed and simplicity, program highlights include:

• Electronic Invoicing: Inventory Xpress can import invoices from most major food distributors. This not only saves time but greatly reduces common entry errors.

• Xpress Count: Using a Smartphone, Tablet or Pocket PC, managers can count their ending on hand in less than half the time it takes with pen and pad.

• Xpress Trouble Shooting: Human error is inevitable. Finding and fixing mistakes fast is the key. The Inventory Xpress Trouble Shooting report instantly pinpoints every potential mistake seconds after the ending count.

• Quick Order: Theft and waste are opportunistic infections– when and where you overstock, you will over use. Quick Order takes just seconds to determine exactly how much you need to order and even flags items at risk of running out. By quickly drawing down excess stock you leave cash in the bank and not on the shelf.

Retire Your Spreadsheet!

Xpress Basic is a faster, easier, more accurate and very affordable way to produce basic cost of sales reporting.

• Easy Data Entry: Quickly enter invoices by category and update item prices as needed.

The key to inventory cost control is daily feedback. Most operation shave a handful of ‘high cost/high loss’ items that represent a major percentage of their total costs – often 50% or more. You need to track these key items on a daily basis to impact inventory costs.

Enter Xpress Daily. If you already use Inventory Xpress, you have the foundation required to identify these “high cost/high loss” inventory items and build simple recipes to track when and where they are sold. Sales mix can be entered manually or imported.

Simply conduct key item counts each morning and use Xpress Daily to pinpoint what was sold, what was used, and the difference.

Knowing each day how well your store controlled these key items gives managers the feedback they need to train and monitor their staff and drive costs lower with each passing week.
