Menu Item Sales Analysis Report Guide

To access this report, log in to Business Intelligence and select Loss Prevention > Menu Item Sales Analysis. 

Purpose of the Report

The Menu Item Sales Analysis report allows you to select a specific menu item and analyze sales by:

• Store
• Daypart
• Employee

This report is especially useful if you are:

• Running a sales contest on a specific item
• Tracking performance of a new menu item
• Monitoring employee sales behavior

How to Select a Menu Item

1. Select Lookup Items.
2. A dropdown list of all menu items in the database will appear.
   
3. You can:
   • Use the search bar at the top to quickly find an item, or
   • Scroll through the full list

Practical Use Case Example

This report can be used to identify which employee has sold the most of a specific item, such as bottled water.

Once you identify the employee:

• You may want to run a Tip Report for that employee.
• This can help determine whether they are ringing in water while providing a different beverage in an effort to increase tips.

Example Scenario

Below is an example of a report for Water at the Enterprise level, sorted by the Qty column to identify the employee who sold the highest quantity.

• You can use this same method to:
• Track the performance of a new appetizer
• Monitor upsell contests
• Recognize top-performing employees
