Features
Everything you need to see true product profit
Recipe costing, inventory, sales without a POS, and margin intelligence — without turning into another ERP. One loop: cost, stock, sales, profit, then a clear next action.
Four jobs. One product.
FaciCost stays narrow on purpose so owners, kitchen staff, and stock controllers can finish a task in a few taps.
- CostingOne engine for recipes, packaging, and meals. Selling price, cost, gross profit, and margin stay the same on every screen.Learn more
- StockPurchases, sales, waste, counts, and transfers write a ledger. The quantity you see is a cache, not a typed overwrite.Learn more
- SalesQuick sale, daily totals, or CSV. A POS is optional. Posterita can send completed till sales when you connect it.Learn more
- IntelligenceThe dashboard is for attention: low margins, supplier price increases, waste, and unexplained stock variance — with a next step.Learn more
Built for the work that changes margin
- Recipe costingBuy in kilograms, use grams in the dish, add waste, and see the cost of every portion.
- Combos and mealsA Chicken Burger Meal is burger + chips + a drink at one selling price. Selling it consumes the components automatically.
- PurchasingRecord what arrived and what it cost. Only received purchases change stock.
- WasteSpoilage, prep waste, and staff meals leave the ledger and show up in profit — they are not a silent stock edit.
- UnitsConversions are explicit: box to bottle, litre to millilitre. Recipes never guess a unit.
- Shops and stock roomsA branch is the café. A location is the dry store. Access is decided on the server, not by hiding a menu.

Common questions
Do I need a POS to use FaciCost?
No. Enter a quick sale, a daily total, or a CSV. Posterita and other tills are optional sales sources. Cost, recipes, and stock stay in FaciCost.
Can I cost a combo or meal?
Yes. A fixed combo has its own selling price. When it sells, FaciCost consumes the components — and their recipes — so you do not deduct chips and drinks by hand.
If I change a recipe today, does last month’s profit change?
No. Historical sales keep the cost that applied at the time. A recipe change recalculates current product cost. It does not silently rewrite the past.
Is the stock figure just a number someone typed?
No. Stock is a movement ledger. Purchases, sales, waste, counts, and transfers create movements. The on-hand figure is a cache of that history.
Simple for the owner. Robust for the business.
Start with a recipe and a selling price. Add purchases, stock, and sales when the team is ready.
