Managing your restaurant stock can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. With the right tools, you can streamline your inventory, reduce waste, and save money. Food Market Hub offers a suite of stock reports designed to make your life easier. These reports give you clear insights into your stock balance, inventory levels, and wastage, helping you make smarter decisions. Let’s dive into the different types of stock reports and how they can benefit you.

1. Stock Balance Report (Package)

The Stock Balance Report (Package) is a useful tool for tracking ingredient packages. It provides a detailed view of stock levels, helping you avoid overstocking or running out of essential items.

This report includes the Min PAR Level, which shows the minimum quantity of an ingredient you should always have on hand. If your stock dips below this level, you’ll know it’s time to reorder. On the flip side, the Max PAR Level lets you set a ceiling for how much of an ingredient you want to keep in stock. This prevents over-ordering and reduces the risk of spoilage.

The On Hand Level feature shows you exactly how much of an ingredient is left at the package level. If you’re curious about the remaining quantity of a product after usage, the On Hand Product View has you covered. Additionally, the Unit Cost and Total Cost sections break down the cost of each ingredient, helping you understand your expenses better.

2. Stock Count Report

Ever wondered how much stock you have in your inventory? The Stock Count Report answers that question. It provides a clear snapshot of the items available in your inventory.

You can search for specific items by name and see their units of measurement, such as kilograms or liters. The report also lets you compare the previous quantity of an item with its current quantity, so you can track usage patterns. Plus, you’ll see the cost of each item, making it easier to manage your budget.

3. Stock Balance (Product)

The Stock Balance (Product) report is a comprehensive tool that gives you a complete overview of your products. It includes details like the unique product code, product name, branch name, product tag, and product category.

You’ll also find the units of measurement, on-hand quantity, variants, unit cost, and total cost. This report is perfect for getting a bird’s-eye view of your inventory and understanding how each product contributes to your overall stock balance.

4. Stock Wastage Report

Wastage is one of the biggest challenges in managing restaurant stock. The Stock Wastage Report helps you identify and reduce waste.

This report shows you the quantity of wastage compared to the percentage procured. You’ll see the wastage quantity and wastage cost, which can be eye-opening. There’s also a section for special remarks, where you can note how the wastage occurred—whether it was due to spoilage, spillage, or other reasons. By analyzing this data, you can take steps to minimize waste and save money.

5. Stock Adjustment Report

Inventory discrepancies can happen, but they don’t have to hurt your business. The Stock Adjustment Report helps you identify and address stock fluctuations.

This report gives you insights into discrepancies in your inventory, allowing you to fine-tune your stock management. Whether it’s a miscount or a misplaced item, this report helps you stay on top of your inventory and ensure smooth operations.

6. Stock Count Analysis Report

The Stock Count Analysis Report is all about tracking changes in your inventory. It lets you compare the quantity of procured inventory with the present inventory, so you can see how much variation has occurred.

This report is particularly useful for identifying trends and patterns in your stock usage. By understanding these changes, you can make more accurate forecasts and avoid surprises.

7. Stock Transfer History

If you manage multiple outlets, the Stock Transfer History report is a must-have. It shows you which ingredients are being transferred from one outlet to another.

You can check the dates of transfer, the items moved, and who received them. This report ensures transparency and accountability, making it easier to manage stock across different locations.

8. Stock Card Report

Need detailed information about a specific ingredient? The Stock Card Report has you covered.

This report provides in-depth data about individual items, such as eggs or chicken. You can track usage, costs, and quantities for each ingredient, giving you a clear picture of how it impacts your inventory.

Why These Reports Matter

Effective stock management is crucial for your restaurant’s success. According to a study by the National Restaurant Association, 10% of food purchases end up as waste, costing businesses thousands annually. By using Food Market Hub’s stock reports, you can reduce waste, optimize inventory, and improve your bottom line.

These reports are designed to save you time and effort. Instead of manually tracking stock, you can rely on accurate, real-time data to make informed decisions. Whether you’re managing a single location or multiple outlets, these tools will help you stay organized and efficient.
