run the revenue audit
The Revenue Audit scores five areas, Check Average, Labor Efficiency, Menu Performance, Server Performance, and Events, off the data you already keep. There is no form to fill in and nothing self-reported. It scores whatever it can see and shows N/A for anything it cannot.
1. Get your week in
Open Revenue Recovery → Revenue Audit. The top card is a readiness checklist of what the audit reads, hours logged, menu items priced with units sold, server checks logged, events booked, and the week confirmed, and it checks off each slice you already have. Any row you are missing taps through to the step that fills it. You can still run with gaps; they just read N/A.
2. Generate the audit
Hit Generate. Your weekly numbers, schedules, menu items, and servers feed it automatically. If no week is closed yet, enter last week's bar and food sales when Bar Cop asks, so the first score has real numbers to work from.
3. Read your results
You get an overall score up top, a score for each of the five areas (N/A where there is no data), and a Recoverable Per Month figure with its annualized number. Below sit your Action Items, ranked by dollar impact.
4. Fix what it finds
Each action item has a Fix This button that drops you into Revenue Fix on that exact gap; an events item sends you to Event Booking instead. The Bar Cop Briefing is a short written read of where you stand, and Export PDF saves the whole audit. Run it whenever you want a fresh read; it scores your trailing four weeks and keeps one record a day so you can watch the score trend.
Cost savings (labor) and revenue growth (check average, menu, servers, events) are kept separate, never blended into one number. Every figure is computed in code from your real data.
