Bar POS features help Jay C's save 30% on liquor costs

Maitre'D offers a POS system for bars with a bar interface that is designed to work with a multitude of liquor control devices. The benefits from tighter cost controls are clear and proven, and no controls can mean the difference between profit and loss.

With certain devices, the bartender selects a drink from the Maitre'D POS workstation menu and Maitre'D relays to the liquor control device how much alcohol to pour. With this configuration, the bartender cannot pour any alcohol before punching the sale in Maitre'D, and the liquor control device will only pour the amount specified.

With other devices, Maitre'D can be configured to record the amount of liquor poured through the device. If the bartender uses 2 shots of vodka to prepare a drink, then Maitre'D will register two shots of Vodka.

A third method allows the sales to be entered in the POS workstation and the alcohol that is poured through the liquor control device to be recorded in Maitre'D. All liquor sales are saved in the Maitre’D database and comparative reports can be generated to easily find any discrepancies.
