To help minimize cost and maximize profitability, you can set an ideal percentage for maintaining target food cost for all plates and menus created in Menu Analysis.
Menu Analysis compares the target food cost percentage to the total food cost percentage of each plate.
If the plate has a food cost percentage that is higher than the target food cost percentage, Menu Analysis displays the Food Cost Alert icon for the plate in the Info Column.
If a menu contains plates that exceed the target food cost percentage, the Food Cost Alert icon displays in the Info Column for the menu.
If either icon displays, you can analyze the plate/menu and address items that fall outside of the parameter settings to increase profitability.
This following topics describe the process of maximizing profits and minimizing costs
