Waste is part of the Procurement capability. If there’s no Waste entry
under Inventory (dashboard) or in the klikit app, it isn’t enabled for your
business yet.
Log waste
Waste is logged as it happens — from the dashboard with the “+ Log waste” button on Inventory → Waste (pick a branch first), or from the klikit app at the branch:1
Add items
Pick the ingredient, enter the quantity and unit. Add as many lines
as you need — the whole session submits together.
2
Categorise
Choose a category — expired, spoilage, over-portioning, theft,
or other — and add a short reason. A reason is required for other.
3
Submit
Submit the entry. Stock is deducted immediately and the cost of the waste is
calculated from the ingredient’s cost.
The staff-facing waste-entry screen in the klikit app is still rolling out;
the dashboard entry form is available now.
Waste is self-approved: submitting deducts stock right away so counts never
drift. Managers review after the fact from the dashboard (see below) rather than
blocking the line during service.
Review waste (manager)
On the dashboard, Inventory → Waste shows every waste event with its category, quantity, cost, and reason. A manager can open an event and mark it reviewed — a lightweight audit trail without holding up the staff who logged it.Waste cost analysis
The Cost report view groups waste by category, ingredient, and time period so you can see where the money is going:- Total waste cost over the selected period.
- Breakdown by category and the top waste items.
- Filter by branch, date range, and category.
