Stock adjustments of Composite Items

[FARINA]

Hi there,

 

I run a pizza shop and sell f.e. Pizza Margherita

 

At the end of the day my Pizzaiolo burnt 2 Martheritas. I would like to do a stock adjustment, category Loss/Damage so everything is fine.

The only problem is, that my Pizza Margherita does not appear in the stock adjustment page since it is a composite item. How can I solve this issue?

Maybe selling it with a 100% Discount would be an ugly option?

Thanks!

I could of course switch on the "track Stock" option. Then the pizza appears in the menu of Stock adjustments and i can make a stock adjustment. But in the end I need a stock adjustments of the ingredients of the pizza, not of the pizza itself.

 

Thanks!

hello!

The great option from Loyverse is Production for Composite items. If you "produce" 2 pizza you will have  a stock for it and at ingredients will be decreased as well since it is already cooked. So at the end of day you can adjust unsold pizza. 

Have a nice day!

Hi Christine, Thank you for your answer

 

Of course I am aware of the stock functionality as you see above: But a pizza with is created upon request and sold in a minute -> therefor not stock. Or in other words: To create production for each Item I sell only to be able to make stock adjustments is a pretty bad work around.

I do not see that loyverse can handle this different than with a sale of 100% discount, unless I would like to spend 15 minutes playing around with the stock every day...

The technical solution would be that you can create a production/stock for composite items and it tracks/adjust stock. (that happens today already)
However if I do not want to create production I should still be able to lower the amount of ingredients of an item on the highest level. That means to say 1 pizza is burnt, and then it lowers the amount of flour, chees etc. Today I have to do that manually on the lowest level. 

So my question is: How do other restaurants deal with damage/loss of unique instantly produced items which are never in stock?

Thanks!

If it’s a composite item and you have set the measures of each ingredient for the item then if you put it down to Ullage with 100% discount it would take the measured items from your stock levels. You can then go in to discounts and select discounts, set the period day/week/month/year and it will give you a ullage figure at resale price. This info would be enough for your accountants as you have a profit margin in your item list for each item so can work out the actual loss at cost price! We use it in a bar but I can’t see if it would make any difference to what ever you sell as long as the measurements of each ingredient is calculated then linked with composite option.

Hi Peb94, 

Thank you for this great answer. I did not know that I can have these stats for the accountant. This basically makes the work around work!
