Has anyone ever found a good inventory control program that tracks right off the point of sale but doesn't take a lifetime to setup or cost a fortune to install and have set-up...
Hi Dave,
Try QSR Online, which I know integrates with Dinerware (POS), and I am sure a number of others. It's a great centralized online inventory management system that you can use for one or more restaurants.
Considering that every restaurant is so unique it is going to be hard to avoid an initial setup and faithful maintenance. I suggest ChefTec it takes a considerable effort but has POS integration and Vendor Download capabilities. The key value in an inventory control system, beyond standard overall COGS generated weekly, is to obtain a Theoretical Cost. (Which ultimately requires all the effort you are discovering with the many options on the market)
