Stock & Wastage Tracker

About the Stock & Wastage Tracker

Wastage is pure lost profit, and in hospitality it adds up fast. This Stock & Wastage Tracker helps you get it under control. Track your stock levels and value with automatic low-stock alerts, and log every bit of wastage by reason (out of date, over-prep, spoilage) so you can see exactly what is being thrown away and why.

The dashboard shows your stock value, low-stock items, this week's wastage, your wastage as a percentage of stock, your top waste reason and deliveries due, with a wastage-by-reason breakdown. Seeing where the waste comes from is the first step to cutting it, and even a small reduction goes straight to your bottom line.

Built in Excel and Google Sheets with automatic reorder alerts and sample data, it works on any device. Pair it with our [Recipe Costing & Menu Planner](#/product/recipe-costing-menu-planner) and [Daily Takings & Cash-Up](#/product/daily-takings-cash-up).
