- Project Description
-
There are more than 785 restaurants of INTERNATIONAL FOODCHAIN network on the territory of CIS countries. As part of the expansion of the network, the company opens restaurants in Uzbekistan - at the moment there are already 14 restaurants in the country.
Before the project, the exchange between the "1C:Accounting" 2.0 system and the "R-Keeper" system was adjusted to the specifics of catering enterprises. Due to the lack of management accounting in real time, the company did not receive information on inventory balances in a timely manner, which had a negative impact on the financial statements. It was impossible to analyze sales in real time - only at the end of the day. For the BI-system used it was necessary to constantly buy additional licenses, and it took time to connect each new restaurant to it. Given the high rate of development of the company in Uzbekistan, such delays were critical. Also, the company needed a system that would allow it to work with the specifics of the catering industry: write-offs of dishes, modifiers, etc.
Project results:
- Fully automatic integration between the front-office system "R-Keeper" and the UIS ("1C:ERP World Edition" + "1C:Catering. Module for 1C:ERP and 1C:KA2") was set up. Thanks to the integration, the formation of the document "release of meals" and write-off of materials in production is automated.
- A complex of visual dashboards in 1C: Analytics was adjusted for on-line comprehensive analysis of sales. As a result, the company's management is able to analyze the course of sales in each restaurant in real time and at any time of the day: what dishes are sold, which segment of the product yields the most revenue, etc. Obtaining data for sales analysis was accelerated from 24 hours to 10 minutes.
- Production and regulated accounting was implemented in 1C:ERP World Edition in accordance with the legislation of Uzbekistan and the specifics of the company, but with maximum preservation of the standard configuration.
- User instructions for company employees in Uzbekistan were developed to speed up adaptation to the new system and to provide the possibility of using the system without developers' participation.
- Deep analytical details of sales are set up without referring to additional sources: KKM, responsible manager, supplier of sold products, articles, nomenclature, the number of receipts, etc.
- High speed of the system operation was ensured at the daily number of catering receipts of about 12,000 documents per day.
- In the course of the project, the company's business processes were improved in accordance with international accounting standards.

- Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
