What’s new
Food revenue can now be configured at segment level within a profit center.
This enhancement allows each segment to have its own food revenue settings and calculation method, providing greater flexibility for operations that forecast Food and Beverage revenue separately.
Why is this useful?
- Configure food revenue independently for each segment.
- Use different food revenue calculation methods for different segments.
- Automatically identify segments that are configured as food segments and lock them at 100% food revenue.
- Improve food revenue forecasting for operations with multiple revenue streams.
- View and manage food revenue percentages directly in Budget & forecast.
What has changed?
Live forecast settings
When food revenue is enabled for a segmented profit center:
- Food revenue can be enabled or disabled per segment.
- Each segment can use its own calculation method.
- Food revenue is calculated separately for each segment and combined into a total for the profit center.
- Segments configured as food segments in the property setup are automatically enabled and fixed at 100% food revenue.
Note: During deployment, any existing Food Revenue calculation method configured on the profit center is automatically applied to all segments.
