Challenges Faced by Restaurant & Food Service Businesses

Cash leakage and daily closing mismatches

Cash registers with no digital trail lead to daily closing discrepancies that add up to significant losses over a month. ASTech ERP's POS records every transaction and generates an accurate daily cash closing report.

Ingredient cost control and recipe wastage

Not knowing how much a dish actually costs in ingredients makes menu pricing guesswork. The recipe management module links dishes to ingredients, tracks theoretical vs actual consumption, and alerts on unusual wastage.

GST on restaurant services: 5% vs 12% vs 18%

Restaurant GST varies by type — 5% for non-AC, 12% for AC, 18% with ITC. Applying the wrong rate leads to penalties. ASTech ERP applies the correct GST rate based on your restaurant type and order channel.

Managing multiple order channels

Restaurants now take orders through dine-in, Swiggy, Zomato, and WhatsApp simultaneously. Tracking revenue and kitchen orders across channels without a central system creates chaos. ASTech ERP provides a unified order view.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the POS support table management and KOT printing?+
Yes. The POS has a table layout view where you can open, merge, and close tables. Kitchen Order Tickets (KOT) are printed automatically to the kitchen printer when an order is placed, reducing miscommunication between front of house and kitchen.
Can I track ingredient-level inventory for daily closing?+
Yes. You define recipes for each menu item specifying ingredient quantities. As orders are billed, ingredient stock is deducted automatically. The daily closing report shows theoretical consumption vs physical count, highlighting wastage or pilferage.
How does GST work for a restaurant with both AC and non-AC sections?+
You can configure different GST rates per order type or seating zone. The system applies 5% for non-AC sections and the appropriate rate for AC or premium dining automatically based on the table or order type.
Is there an online ordering or aggregator integration?+
ASTech ERP supports manual order entry from Swiggy and Zomato with channel tagging for revenue analysis. Direct aggregator API integration is on the roadmap for the Growth and Enterprise plans.
Can I run a loyalty or discount scheme for regular customers?+
Yes. The customer management module supports loyalty points, birthday discounts, and custom discount categories. Cashiers can apply loyalty points at billing with one click.
