Start the week

Add each food invoice as it comes in, then put the week's food sales in at the bottom. The GP works itself out.

Put in the invoice total as it appears on the bill, before VAT. A photo gets read for the supplier and the total — always check it against the paper, and reach for the goods total rather than the amount due if the two differ.

Purchase £ is what a pack costs to buy; Stock unit £ is what that works out at per kg, litre or each. Edit either and the other follows. Every line reads reduced to one unit — per kg, per litre or each — with the cost restated to match, so pack sizes compare directly. Edit the per-unit cost and the pack cost follows. Lines marked Spec figure take their figures from a dish spec rather than a pack. Amendments and additions are held on this device and feed the dish spec costs straight away. The spreadsheet is read-only to the site, so put a lasting price change into the sheet as well.
