System stock is only trustworthy when it is periodically verified against physical stock. Menulyn gives restaurants a dedicated stock-count workflow so counted quantities, expected balances and operational variance can be reviewed in context.
A physical count is the control point that tests whether purchases, receiving, sales, recipes, production, wastage and adjustments have all been recorded correctly. Repeated variance is a signal that another part of the stock process needs attention.
These capabilities are part of the Menulyn operational feature set and are designed to work with the surrounding sales, stock, staff and reporting records.
Create structured count records rather than editing stock balances ad hoc.
Compare the system quantity with the quantity staff physically verify.
Identify shortages and overages that need investigation.
Review movements, receiving, sales, recipes and wastage around a discrepancy.
Retain previous count activity for accountability and trend review.
Support decimal quantities where the underlying product or stock unit requires measurement.
Work with the configured inventory units used by purchasing and stock control.
Use the appropriate stock-adjustment workflow when an investigated variance requires correction.
Menulyn is designed around connected records, so each step has context from the step before it.
Choose the stock scope and establish the system quantities to be verified.
Record what staff actually find on shelves, in stores, behind the bar or in the kitchen.
Compare counted and expected quantities and investigate material differences.
Where necessary, use the controlled inventory-adjustment process rather than silently overwriting history.
Physical stock counting is part of Menulyn inventory control. Measured Products require Business+ when the sellable product uses measured-item functionality.
Yes. Menulyn includes a physical stock-count workflow for comparing counted stock with system quantities.
Use a physical count to verify what is actually on hand. If the investigation shows the system balance must be corrected, use the controlled adjustment workflow afterward.
Where the relevant item and unit configuration supports measured or decimal quantities, the inventory workflow can preserve those operational quantities.
See counts alongside purchasing, recipes, movements and valuation.
Record legitimate loss before it becomes unexplained count variance.
Improve receiving records before the next stock verification.
