Revamp your beverage inventory tool
There are several emails between Paige and I regarding this issue. It will save us a lot of time to have certain fields be required to fill in when entering a product. When we have month end time and accuracy is of the essence. We find that there are issues with quantities being entered and there is no wholesale value attached. So at the last minute the team is scrambling to locate invoices to see how much a new item was purchased for. As I mentioned to have required fields such as vendor and wholesale value would greatly improve our…
6 votesHi,
I believe this request is for the ability to enter brand data through the app. If so, this is a great idea that we have heard a few times.
There is no planned release date yet, but I believe this update will be added to our roadmap in the near future!
Thank you,

Separate data for draft vs. bottled beer
I want to calculate a separate pour cost for draft beer and bottled beer.
5 votesHi,
Thank you all for your feedback.
If you want break down beer cost to draft beer on hand vs. bottle beer on hand, just follow these steps:
1) One-time setup: Put the ‘Draft’ or ‘Bottle’ in the Product Code field for each beer you carry at partender.com/setup
2) From then on, every time you get your inventory report, sort by Product Code
3) Highlight all the wholesales values that pair with the respective product code, then you will easily see your total beer cost for draft vs. bottle.
We are planning ability to filter in the Analytics portal (partnder.com) by containers (e.g. keg vs. bottle), to easily see COGS as well as Value on Hand by additional filters. You’ll be able to export this data to Excel if needed.
If you’re using Value on Hand on the inventory spreadsheet to calculate your beverage cost, you’re doing extra steps and…

Being able to delete a bottle from our Brands
I understand that partender removes unused bottles from the brands page, and that we do not want to delete previous/non current bottles so it does not mess up past inventory. The problem I recently experienced when training our staff, was that one of our staff accidentally placed an incorrect bottle in our venue that we never carried. Now we are stuck with it on our brands page. It would be nice if there was a way to offer a delete option from the brands page with multiple warning & "are you sure" messages.
1 voteHi there!
We believe we’ve actually resolved this issue already because we have a filter called “Current Placed In Your Venue” automatically turned on such that even if you accidentally add a product and remove it, that product should now be filtered out of your Brands page.
Does that help?

Add liquor costing.
We have food costing in our kitchen, where you can use a recipe card and figure out how much it costs us to make a hamburger. We'd like something similar for our liquor, for mixed drinks for example, where we could enter in a recipe and using our wholesale prices, it would calculate how much the drink should cost.
36 votesHello!
We currently have a beta version of recipe costing. This includes entering in wholesale costs to calculate how much a drink should cost, as well as reverse engineering your costs and prices for a target pour cost.
Please email support@partender.com for access to our Recipe Calculator.Thank you!

Craft Beer Kegs
Not an idea as much as a request..
We have 12 tap handles of rotating craft beer, which none of the popular craft brewers are in your database, but the problem I have is creating and removing a craft beer easily. I dont need a par on something that I may only buy once. Please update the database for beer and make it easy to turn off a product once it has been consumed.14 votesHi,
It is very fast and simple to swipe and delete a product while taking inventory if it has been entirely consumed. And there is no need to set a par or distributor if you are not going to reorder the item.
However, we believe that most customers struggle with adding new products and quickly setting the Brand data (prices, etc.).
We are currently working on a better/easier way to create new products and quickly input the desired Brand data.
Let us know if you have more suggestions or feedback!
Thank you,

Mark Invoices PAID
We should be able to mark an Invoice as PAID (with date) so we can easily see which INvoices are open and which are settled.
1 voteHi Zach,
This is an interesting request. Invoices, as they are set up now in the Purchasing page, should be entered or checked-in once the products are received into the venue.
It’s a good idea to add a “paid” option if payment for received purchases is handled at a later time. We will bring this up to our Product team.
Thank you!

Be able to run inventory report on certain parts of venue
We do a Full inventory once a month, but do only the stock rooms once a week. If I could run an inventory report for my stock rooms separately from the entire venue, it would make weekly ordering much easier. Then when I look at the weekly report spreadsheet I could see exactly what needs to be ordered each week instead of having to scroll through each placement of the stockroom individually.
7 votesHi,
You could take a beginning and ending inventory session on a per Area basis to track usage, however, the total quantity on hand would be aggregate.
If you wanted to set your pars based on only the stock room, you could use the reset to zero feature and only count the stock room for ordering!
Learn more about the reset to zero feature here: http://support.partender.com/knowledgebase/articles/615426-how-do-i-reset-the-counts-levels-to-0

Lite version
Would you do a lite version that say kept track of say 150 items, I own a small bar in Prgaue and I love the system, but it's just too much of a cost for us per month. I would be happy to get less details reports and not have food included.
4000czk just too expensive for a small bar here. I would be happy to apy about 1000czk monthly for limited support and a lite version.
Cheers Jonathan.

Updated Bottles
I have 15 different flavors of Three Olives but the data base has the old and older pictures.
15 votesHi there,
We are continually updating and adding new bottles to our database, but it’s a lot of work!
We appreciate your patience while we overhaul our bottle database in order to upload new products and labels.
Thank you!

It would be really awesome if we could create our own sub Product Types
The venue I manage is a high volume music venue and we separate our POS Screen buttons & categories by Liquor level/price rather than liquor type, in order to operate as quickly as possible. If I was able to assign Sub Product types to match the liquor level categories to match our POS reports, it would be so amazing.
1 voteHi there,
Please email support@partender.com which Product Types you would like to add (and any parent-child relationships) and we can consider these for you and our entire customer database.
Thank you!

add additional sub categories in Product Types based on packaging types
It would be great to have more sub categories based on the packaging in the Beer category, i.e.: Bottles, Cans, Draught, Import, Premium, Domestic
2 votesHi,
All products already have a container type (bottle, can, or keg). Our Product Types are based on types of alcohol or beverage, so we could not mix in other categories such as container, quality, etc.
However, we can look into adding other kinds of categories and improving the way you could use these categories for reporting!
Thank you,

Add a search bar for the venue tab, both dashboard and app
There is a search bar when looking for products under brands but it doesn't allow you to figure out where in the venue it is located or to delete it. It would be easier to have a search bar in the venue tab so I don't have to scroll through the entire list to find a product. This is especially annoying in the app.
2 votesHi Angel,
Having a search engine in the app and Venue page would be really helpful. We have received other requests like this.
We will bring this feature request to our Product team. In the meantime, you can search the Venue page in the web portal by using keyboard shortcuts (ctrl+F or command+F).
Thank you!

Better units for counting dry goods and food. IE Cases of Bev Naps, pounds of Hamburger
Better units for counting dry goods and food. IE Cases of Bev Naps, pounds of Hamburger.
Currently all units are set up for Beverages3 votesHi,
It’s true – Partender was designed and built for beverage, or liquid capacity. For now, it still works great for anything you want to count by the whole unit.
In the future, we do want to build out more features for food! In the meantime, there are some tricks to still use the existing program for food. Give us a shout if you want to set up a free test account for food. =)

Attach invoice image to invoice
I want to be able to attach an image of my invoice to my digital invoice in Partender so I have a 2nd record of those purchases. This will help if we get audited.

Hi there,
It sounds like you’re interested in seeing how much alcohol you used, so you can compare it to how much you sold. This information is in your Usage Report!
Download a Usage Report from the Reports page to see how many bottles, ounces, or shots you used of any product.

Filter by missing Product Code in Brands page
I want to view only products that are missing the product code.

Adding more filters to the Brands page has been a popular request lately. We will bring this suggestion or our Product team to see when we can fit it into our roadmap.

Inventory search
Ability to search inventory too see if certain bottle in stock quickly.
10 votesHi,
The best way to see if a bottle is in stock is to 1) search for the product in the Analytics page to view the most recent count, or 2) review the most recent inventory report, which breaks down quantity on hand per Area (so you can see how much you have in different locations throughout the venue).
We will review adding a search feature in the application.
Thank you,

Update distributors in brands page from new invoices
Update distributor info for brands based off of invoices added to Partender
2 votesHi,
This is a good idea. We already update the wholesale price based on new invoices, so updating the distributor might be the next step.
Our Product Team will consider this.
Thank you!

Show partial counts on the 'Shelf' screen.
I think it would be a big help to show partial counts on the 'Shelf' screen.
So for example, we have 1.5 bottles of Baileys on the shelf. Currently, when I look in the list it will just show the '1 Full bottles' of for Bailey's.
I like using that screen to verify that my counts are accurate and if it showed partial bottle counts, such as '1.5 Full bottles', it would be very helpful.
