Creating inventory locations allows you to better track inventory performance in different areas of your bar or restaurant. Whether you have multiple service areas or want to simply track inventory across storage areas, using inventory locations is the best way to improve reporting and inventory analysis.
Backbar allows you to collaborate with co-workers to perform inventory counts on different areas simultaneously. With inventory locations, each staff member can record counts in different locations to reduce the workload and time spent on inventory. For more information on adding staff members, refer to the article "How do I invite users to my organization?".
Using the text search box to find specific items or searching by drink subtype like vodka or whiskey, will expedite counting to quickly run through inventory counts.
In addition to using search, you can also use the wine, beer, spirits, and non-alcoholic drink type filters to find the relevant items you need to count.
You can save and sort the sequence of inventory items to match a custom order that was previously used for inventory. This can help you match the layout of your bar and storage shelves to quickly move through inventory products.
With sort by last counted, you can save and organize inventory items by the sequence or order in which you last counted items. This allows you to match your inventory list with the way items are organized and laid out behind your bar and in your storage areas. This is to help you quickly take sheet-to-shelf inventory with minimal issues.
