Inventory questions

How accurate is a photo count?

A photo count is an estimate. Dineology shows a quantity range and a confidence score, and you confirm or correct it before it is saved. If you need an exact figure for an item, weigh or count it.

How do I set up a product?

You calibrate each product once with photos of full, half and nearly empty containers, and tell Dineology the unit and cost.

Which products and containers work best?

[CONFIRM: list from beta testing, for example produce bins, cases, hotel pans and bottles.]
