Ideal Usage
SpeedLine Inventory calculates what you should have used and what you should have remaining in stock, assuming perfect portion-control, no waste, and no theft: your ideal usage.
When you enter the actual counts from your physical inventory, the software then calculates the shrinkage, or variance, between your ideal and actual inventory usage and costs. This allows you to identify problems with kitchen prep processes, reduce waste or theft, and manage suppliers and re-ordering.
