The questions it answers
Where did the missing stock go?
Count the shelf and Kalanteer shows the gap against the book, then sets stock to what is really there.
Why did this item drop?
Open any item to see every movement with its reason - delivery, prep, waste or count.
How it works
- Record deliveries
Typed in, from a purchase order, from an invoice or with the scanner. Stock and average cost update.
- Prep and waste take it off
Log a batch or a write-off and its ingredients come off stock.
- Count the shelf
On the web or with a handheld scanner. Kalanteer shows the gap and corrects the stock.

Questions about inventory
Do sales come off stock?
With Chef and a connected POS, every sale takes its ingredients and prep off stock through the recipe. On Sous-Chef, a count brings stock in line.
Do I need a scanner?
No. You can count on the web. A handheld barcode scanner makes counting and receiving faster, and works offline in a walk-in or a cellar.
Can I count only part of my stock?
Yes. Leave blank what you didn't count and only the counted items change.
