Altametrics Inventory Pro
Key Info:
Altametrics Inventory Pro is inventory management software for restaurant operators connecting ingredient counts, purchasing, waste and food-cost controls. Its current official product listing covers restaurant inventory counts, food-cost tracking, variance analysis, purchase orders, receiving, waste records, vendor management, operational reports.
This profile concentrates on operational fit and buyer verification. Pricing, customer-size, language and device fields remain blank unless a current official source maps them precisely to the BBS field.
Details
Product scope
Altametrics Inventory Pro brings restaurant inventory counts, food-cost tracking, variance analysis, purchase orders, receiving, waste records, vendor management, operational reports into an inventory workflow. The practical value depends on reliable item identities, units, locations and movement reasons. Buyers should define the source of truth for products, suppliers and on-hand quantities before enabling imports or integrations, and decide who may receive, transfer, adjust and approve stock.
Evaluation scenario
Run a controlled pilot to count a representative storage area, receive an order, record waste, investigate a variance and compare theoretical and actual food cost. Use representative item names, units, users and locations rather than a vendor demonstration dataset. Include a duplicate scan, an unavailable item, a delayed synchronization event and a quantity correction. The evaluator should be able to reconstruct the opening balance, every movement and the final count.
Stock operations and exceptions
Test receiving, put-away, issue, return, transfer, adjustment and cycle counting as applicable. Confirm how the product handles serial or lot information, negative stock, unit conversion, damaged goods and simultaneous edits. Mobile workflows should be checked with weak connectivity and a realistic barcode set. Alerts should identify a clear owner and should not silently replace formal replenishment or approval rules.
Reporting and integrations
Reconcile transaction history, current quantity and valuation or usage reports to a small independent control sheet. Verify filters, date cut-offs, time zones and export formats. If accounting, purchasing, ecommerce or field-service systems are connected, introduce one rejected or delayed transaction and prove that it can be retried without duplicating stock. Document which system owns each master record and transaction state.
Security and operating controls
Review roles, administrator access, audit history, exports, backups, retention and device permissions. Separate routine counting from approval of material adjustments. Confirm how former users and lost devices are removed, how sensitive cost data is restricted and how operational staff recover from an unavailable service. Record support ownership and the process for investigating an unexplained variance.
Decision checkpoint
Measure count accuracy, adjustment volume, fulfilment time, stockout signals and reconciliation effort during the pilot. Record the tested edition, required integrations, data owners, exception thresholds and rollback plan. Proceed only when Altametrics Inventory Pro maintains understandable, reviewable stock records under normal work and common failure conditions. Recheck current packaging and integration availability directly with Altametrics before purchase or migration.
