Analytics
Know what's working, in the reports you reach for.
Sales, labor, and product mix in one place — clear enough to act on before service, not a dashboard you have to decode after.
The problem:
Your sales live in the POS, your labor lives in the scheduler, and tying them together means exporting both into a spreadsheet on a Sunday night.
Key capabilities:
Sales and labor together. See labor as a percentage of sales, by day and by shift, without exporting anything.
Product mix. Find your best sellers and your dead weight, so you can build a menu that makes money.
Forecasting. Use your own history to plan the week's staffing against expected sales.
The numbers that matter. Sales per labor hour, covers, average check — the metrics operators actually run on.
How it connects:
Analytics pulls from the same orders, schedules, and clock-ins across Palate, so your numbers are always live and accurate, not a snapshot from last week.
