Role guidesWho can adjust stock?
Who can adjust stock and when should they use it?
Only an Inventory Manager or Platform Administrator can post a stock adjustment. Use it only for verified damage, wastage or a data correction that cannot be recorded through receiving, transfers, production, sales or stocktake.
Role guidesFirst shift: Kitchen Expediter
Which systems should a new kitchen expediter learn?
Start with KDS. Use Order Hub only to look up an exception when a lead asks. Use Leftover Stock only when assigned at closing. Do not change recipes, Sales BOMs, stock balances or production batches.
TermsKDS
What does KDS mean and when do I complete an order?
KDS is the Kitchen Display System. It shows live orders for the kitchen. Complete an order only when every item is correct and the order is ready for handover.
Safe operationsNever complete an order just to clear the queue
Can I complete an old or busy order to remove it from the screen?
No. Completion confirms that the order is ready for handover and can affect downstream records. Keep the ticket number and ask the shift lead if it is missing, wrong or duplicated.
TermsSales BOM
What is a Sales BOM?
A Sales BOM defines the stock items and quantities used by one completed customer sale. It is not a Central Kitchen production recipe.
TermsProduction recipe
What is the difference between a production recipe and a Sales BOM?
A production recipe defines inputs and expected output for one Central Kitchen batch. A Sales BOM defines what one completed sale consumes. Actual yield and waste are recorded in Production after the batch is finished.
TermsProduct mapping
Why do we map products?
Product mapping connects a Kiosk, Loyverse, Uber Eats or DoorDash product name to one standard Digital PGE sales product. Mapping alone does not deduct stock; the Sales BOM supplies the consumption rule.
Safe operationsA stocktake is not a shortcut
Can I use a stocktake to fix a missing receipt or transfer?
No. A stocktake records what is physically present and explains variances. Record the missing receipt, transfer or waste through its correct workflow, then use the ledger to trace the history.
TermsStock ledger
Where can I find why a stock balance changed?
Use the Stock Ledger. It is the traceable history behind the balance and links each movement to its source event, such as a receipt, transfer, completed sale or approved correction.
Safe operationsReceive only what physically arrived
Can I receive the full purchase order before delivery arrives?
No. Receiving records what physically arrived. Record short deliveries separately and do not use expected quantity as actual stock.
Safe operationsTransfers change location, not total stock
When should I dispatch and receive a stock transfer?
Dispatch when stock physically leaves the source. The destination confirms receipt only after counting the delivery. A transfer changes where stock is held, not total business stock.
Safe operationsA partner request is not a stock movement
Does a submitted partner supply request deduct stock?
No. A submitted request is reviewed first. Stock moves only when fulfilment dispatches it, and the destination confirms what physically arrived.
Safe operationsImport each external-sales week once
Can I import a sales week again to correct a total?
No. Compare the preview with the source report and import once. If a total is wrong, keep the evidence and report the issue before another import.
Getting startedUAT before go-live
When can live stock consumption be enabled?
Only after UAT, approved opening stock and launch-readiness sign-off. The cutover control is a safety boundary, not a normal daily operation.
Safe operationsUse individual accounts
Why should staff not share an account?
Individual accounts make the audit history reliable and keep location-scoped access limited to the person responsible for that work.
