  • Search prior car shows, festivals, parades, school events, weekdays, weekends, temperatures, and rain.
  • Track fiscal-year-to-date sales, guests, average check, labor, sales per labor hour (SPLH), rolling trends, forecast error, and repeated over- or under-forecasting.
  • Convert forecast sales, guests, minimum coverage, fixed work, and event workload into recommended labor hours.
  • Edit historical days when an important factor is learned later while retaining a controlled revision record.

How to use the resources

What to look for

  • Clear manager purpose statements.
  • Practical forms and review pages.
  • Language that supports fair accountability.
  • Tools that help the restaurant stop relying on memory.
