Introduction

Selling sold-out items can be a costly mistake for restaurants and cafes. Not only does it damage your reputation, but it also leads to wasted inventory, lost revenue, and frustrated customers. In this article, we'll explore how KwickSIGN's auto-86 feature on digital menu boards can help you prevent selling sold-out items and streamline your inventory management process.

The Problem with Sold-Out Items

Sold-out items can occur due to various reasons such as high demand, supply chain disruptions, or inventory management errors. When you sell a sold-out item, you're essentially selling a product that doesn't exist, which can lead to unhappy customers, negative reviews, and lost business. Moreover, it can also lead to wasted inventory, which can result in additional costs and logistical challenges.

How Auto-86 Works

KwickSIGN's auto-86 feature is designed to prevent selling sold-out items by automatically updating your digital menu boards in real-time. When an item goes out of stock, the auto-86 feature removes it from the menu board, ensuring that you don't sell a product that doesn't exist. This feature is especially useful for restaurants and cafes with limited inventory or high-demand items.
