Setting default inventory levels can be a very useful tool for you if you intend on having the same or similar stock levels for your menu items for all of your shifts.
For example, if you know that you always have 5 of your margherita pizzas on hand per shift, then it would make sense to set your margherita pizza inventory to a default of count of 5. When you do that, all future shifts you create will automatically have 5 margherita pizza's available for order.
To set default inventory levels, please follow the steps below:
1. Open and sign into Retool > Cook App
2. Select "Settings" from the bottom menu
3. Select "Update Menu Items"
4. Select the menu item you'd like to set a default inventory amount for
5. Input the quantity you'd like to set and hit "save". See reference image below.
NOTE: To override default inventory for a specific item/date, just head to the specific shift and click "edit inventory" to make the changes you'd like to make!
