Turn Your Menu Into Your Best Salesman.
Most restaurants guess which dishes make money.
You’ll know.
Introducing Menu Engineering—a powerful module inside IBS POS+ that transforms how you cost, price, and profit from every item you serve.
This isn’t just recipe tracking. This is profit intelligence built directly into your POS.
What It Does
Menu Engineering gives you complete control over your food costs, portions, and profitability—automatically.
📏 Unit of Measurement (UOM) Mastery
Buy in kilos. Sell in grams. Purchase in cases. Recipe in tablespoons.
No more manual conversions. No more guesswork.
-
Set multiple UOMs per ingredient (e.g., buy in 20kg bags, use in 250g portions)
-
Auto-convert purchases to recipe units
-
Track waste, trim loss, and yield adjustments
-
Perfect for F&B, bakeries, bars, and cloud kitchens
🍳 Recipe Tracking & Costing
Know the exact cost of every dish—down to the last gram of salt.
-
Build multi-level recipes (sub-recipes for sauces, marinades, combos)
-
Auto-update costs when supplier prices change
-
See food cost % and gross margin per item in real time
-
Flag low-margin items before they bleed your profits
📦 Bundles, Combos & Hidden Inventory
Sell a “Family Meal” but track every rice, chicken, and drink inside.
-
Create bundles & packages that move inventory correctly
-
Add hidden components (e.g., condiments, napkins, garnishes) that deduct from stock but don’t appear on receipts

Perfect for promos, value meals, and catering packages
No spreadsheets. No guesswork. Just clear, actionable insights.
