iTCCS Cafeteria provides you with a means of maintaining inventory information, ordering items to be shipped from a central warehouse to individual schools, printing shipping orders and route recaps, and producing state and local reports.It is an automated, online accounting system designed to assist cafeteria staff with controlling costs, warehouse inventory, and shipping of items ordered.
The Cafeteria application operates by allowing the user to establish and maintain an inventory system.The system can then be used to print the many reports needed to account for the addition, movement, and use of inventory items.As the system is used, it performs the necessary calculations to reflect changes in inventory levels, order quantities, and prices.A table is provided for maintenance of the TEA rates for cash sales and reimbursements.
The advantages to the Cafeteria application are that it prompts the user to enter the exact data required and then performs the necessary calculations automatically, thereby, reducing the chance for introducing errors through repeated manual calculations.The results of this data management are then made available in the form of easily generated reports designed to accurately reflect the status of the inventory.
Extras include the ability to verify if excessive requests are made based on "average daily participation" at each campus.The application tracks inventory costs and items on-hand at all times.Users have the ability to print shipping orders, operating statements, and cost per meal reports, among others.There is also an option to interface costs of certain types of inventory and establish the accounts to be charged for specific campuses.This option also allows for establishing a district-wide account to be used to offset these charges.
As an added bonus, users can upload data from an external point of sale PC file directly into the Cafeteria application and also interface this data to the general ledger as cash receipt transactions.
