FAQ
Can you do the costing for my recipes?
Yes. I can help you set up a few recipes from your menu to get you started. If you want me to cost your entire menu, we can arrange a custom order.
Is the template editable?
Yes. You can fully update units, prices, ingredients, and recipes anytime. Some formulas and VBA automation modules are protected to maintain workbook stability. VBA source code remains protected as part of the template’s intellectual property.
Does this template work in my Excel version?
This tool is designed for Microsoft Excel. If your version supports searchable dropdown lists, you’ll enjoy the full functionality. Older versions may still work, but some features could be limited.
Can I copy and paste data into the template?
Yes, but with caution. Avoid pasting over cells with dropdown lists, as it can break the functionality. For best results, enter data step-by-step and use the dropdown selections provided.
Can I start menu engineering with this template?
Yes. The Menu Profit package includes a Summary Dashboard — an excellent starting point for menu engineering. It helps you see profitability at a glance and make informed menu decisions. Extended support and advanced menu analysis can be arranged if needed.
