Inventory Modifiers for Coffee Shops
Thrive by Shopventory handles modifier tracking, from almond milk to an extra shot of espresso
You know how important it is to provide your customers with the ability to order exactly what they want. Modifiers allow you to customize a customer’s order during the point of sale. You can use modifiers for milk substitutions or chocolate drizzle.Â
Benefits of Modifiers
- Real-time inventory management as you sell so you never run out of stock
- Charge more for substitutions and modifications
- Have the flexibility you need to meet customer requests for customization
Modifiers vs. Bundles
Both bundles and modifiers help coffee shop owners track inventory for components throughout the day instead of relying on nightly cycle counts for accurate inventory. Modifiers track components that can change from customer to customer, such as the addition of cream.
Meanwhile, bundles are used for components that always are sold together, like the pour of coffee, lid, sleeve, and cup.
How to Manage Modifiers for Your Cafe
Using a POS system and/or inventory management system, like Thrive, automate the process of modifiers without complicated spreadsheets. In some POS Systems, such as Clover and Square, you’re already able to track modifications. However, when connected with Thrive you can track the inventory associated with those requests in real-time so you always have accurate stock counts and reporting.Â
