Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common questions about restaurant inventory management.

How does automatic stock depletion work in RestoBlink?

You map each menu dish to its raw material recipe (e.g. 1 Margherita Pizza consumes 150g dough, 80g mozzarella cheese, 60g pizza sauce). Every time a pizza is billed or KOT dispatched, those ingredient quantities are automatically deducted from current stock in real time.

Can RestoBlink help prevent kitchen theft and food waste?

Yes. RestoBlink compares theoretical inventory (what should have been used based on billed orders) against physical stock counts entered during shifts, pinpointing variance, leakage, and unexplained waste immediately.

Does it manage vendor payments and credit ledgers?

Yes. The built-in Vendor Khata records all purchase orders, invoice numbers, partial payments, and outstanding balances, generating vendor payment summaries with one click.

Can I manage raw materials across multiple restaurant branches?

Yes. RestoBlink supports multi-branch inventory tracking, inter-outlet stock requisitions, and central commissary dispatches with centralized consolidated cost reports.
