Overview and Background
Every point-of-sale system available provides average transaction totals for each employee logged onto the system. This is wonderful information. It shows management which employees are up-selling and which are not. The problem with average transaction totals is that it's virtually impossible to determine what items your employees are selling without compiling each individual transaction. A server may be an exceptional appetizer salesperson but a below average dessert seller. Aloha Performance Totals make it easy for management to analyze all the components that are used to compute average transaction.How It Works
When the database is designed for the restaurant , we can establish a direct relationship between categories such as appetizers and desserts sold per entree. Or specific items in a contest like Captain's Morgan's, Kendall Jackson, or Michelob Ultra. This information can be viewed by management at any terminal or in the back office. The performance rankings also print on the server's checkout report at the end of the shift. Historical data has shown that when management can easily access this information and they in turn notify servers that add-on sales must increase, sales will increase in most cases. The Justification
In a restaurant that charges $4.00 per appetizer, $5.00 per Dessert and $.75 per liquor up-charge the following cost justification would apply:
Additional Appetizers Sold Per Day 3
Additional Desserts Sold Per Day 3
Additional Liquor Up-Charges Sold Per Day 3
Additional Revenue Per Month $923.00 Important Note: The following information is intended only to inform and not to be a substitute for the reader's seeking legal or accounting counsel.
