Take Control of Your Kitchen Food Margins
Recipe Bill of Materials (BOM)
Define recipes for core dishes, portion sizes (Half vs Full), and optional add-ons. The system calculates theoretical food cost per plate against the menu selling price to give you real gross profit visibility.
Automatic Consumption on KOT Punch
When waiters punch a table order or cashiers bill a takeaway, required ingredients deduct automatically from your store room ledger. If dishes are cancelled with manager approval, quantities restore immediately.
Supplier Purchase Bill Entries
Log vendor delivery challans and tax invoices with invoice numbers, vendor names, unit purchase rates, and GST rates. Stock quantities increase instantly upon bill confirmation.
Kitchen Wastage & Spoilage Audits
Log spoilage, trial batches, line spillage, and expired ingredients with dedicated reason codes. Compare actual stock physical counts against book stock to spot discrepancies before they compound.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does recipe-based ingredient deduction work when orders are placed?
Every menu item links to a recipe Bill of Materials (BOM). When a cashier or waiter punches an order, Indostra automatically deducts the exact recipe quantities (grams, milliliters, pieces) from your raw materials stock balance.
What happens if an order or item is cancelled?
If an order is cancelled before preparation or returned, manager authorization logs a cancellation entry in the stock ledger, instantly returning the deducted raw materials back to active stock balance.
Can we manage different units of measurement for purchases and recipes?
Yes. Indostra supports standard measurement units (kg, g, l, ml, pcs, dozens, cans). You can log bulk vendor purchases in kilograms or liters and recipe portions in grams or milliliters with automatic unit conversion.
How does Indostra handle kitchen wastage and spoiled stock?
Chefs and managers log wastage entries directly with categorized reasons such as spoilage, preparation burn, expiry, or spillage. Wastage logs are tracked separately from customer sales in your monthly food cost reports.
