Once Prep Planning is set up, the final step is to view and print a prep plan.

Note Before using information provided in the Prep Plan, you should have sales and food usage data from at least one full week of business.

1. Click the Today tab, and then click Operations Planning.
2. Click Prep Planning.
3. On the Prep Plan tab, click the arrow buttons   to select the preparation date to view. Your prep plan table will predict what food should be prepared during each of the prep periods (prep parts) for the day.
   
   
   
   
4. Adjust the numbers in the Store Plan columns to reflect your experience or knowledge of upcoming events, if needed.
   
   
   1. Click the Print button  to print a prep plan report that you can post on the wall or clipboard in your prep area. The report will also list the number of items to pre-sauce.
      
      
      
      

      Hint Prep planning reports may also be printed by clicking the Reports tab and then clicking the Prep Plan and the Run Report buttons.

      After you have been using the Prep Planning tool for several weeks, you may want to run a Prep Variance report to compare what the plan predicted you would need to what was actually sold. See Check the Accuracy of Your Prep Plan for instructions.
