Tomorrow's prep (Friday, same stop and hours)

  • Carnitas: 60 sold + 20% bump = 72, rounded up to 75. Up 15 from today
  • Chicken tinga: 40 sold + 10% = 44, rounded up to 45. Down 5 from today
  • Roasted poblano veggie: 16 sold + 10% = 17.6, rounded up to 20. Down 10 from today
  • Horchata cups: 35 sold + 10% = 38.5, rounded up to 40. Up 2 from today
  • Chips and salsa cups: 60 sold + 10% = 66, rounded up to 70. Down 10 from today

Notes: Carnitas sold out with 45 minutes of service left, so true demand is unknown and we recommend having Heidi keep a tally tomorrow of anyone who asks for carnitas after it runs out. Roasted poblano veggie had the most left over and is flagged over your 30% limit.

Questions for the owner

  • How many people did Heidi see walk away when carnitas sold out?
  • What happened to the 14 leftover roasted poblano portions and the other leftovers? Please follow your health department's rules and confirm them locally.
  • Is there anything about tomorrow (weather, an event nearby) that could change how busy you will be?

What it does

Takes your end-of-day numbers (what you prepped, what was left, what sold out and when) and turns them into a sell-through report and a suggested prep list for tomorrow. It flags items that ran out early and items that left too much behind.

Use it when: Use when a food truck owner wants to log what sold out, what was left over, and what was sold today, then get a prep list for tomorrow, such as: what should I prep tomorrow, we sold out of tacos again, too much was left over, end of day numbers, or adjust my prep.
