Features
Restaurant Waste Management Software
Track wasted orders, individual wasted items and inventory losses in one focused workflow. Kappino helps restaurant teams record waste, capture the reason and value of the loss, and keep waste records organized.
What Is Restaurant Waste Management Software?
Restaurant waste management software helps teams record food and inventory losses, understand why waste occurred, and keep the quantity and value of each loss organized. Kappino provides separate workflows for wasted orders, individual wasted items and inventory waste, so teams can record different types of loss without treating every event as the same.
- Waste management teams need to:
- 01 Record food and inventory losses
- 02 Capture the reason for each waste event
- 03 Track affected items and quantities
- 04 Keep waste values visible
- 05 Keep waste records organized
Track Waste at the Right Operational Level
Different waste events need different records. Kappino separates order-level waste, item-level waste and inventory-level loss so restaurant teams can record what happened with the details that apply to that event.
Wasted Items
Record individual items removed from an order while the rest of the order continues normally. This lets the team capture partial waste without treating the complete order as wasted.
Inventory Waste
Log spoilage, damage and other inventory losses directly against an inventory item. Pick the item (its stock on hand is shown), enter the quantity and reason, and see the value written off. Add optional notes and up to three photos. The stock is deducted automatically.
From Waste Event to Recorded Loss
Kappino keeps the recording process focused on the information the team needs when waste occurs.
01
Choose the Right Record
Mark a whole order as wasted, bin individual items from an order that is still being served, or log an inventory loss.
02
Pick a Reason
Use one of six reasons — Expired, Burned, Damaged, Testing, Staff consumption or Other — and add notes where useful.
03
Capture the Detail
Enter the quantity, attach up to three photos for inventory waste, and see the value written off before saving.
04
Review the Loss
Wasted orders, wasted items and inventory waste each show their count and total value lost, and AI Inventory analytics chart waste by reason.
Reduce Untracked Waste and Improve Cost Control
Make Waste Visible
Bring waste events into a dedicated operational record instead of leaving losses in informal notes or disconnected records.
Separate Full-Order and Partial Waste
Distinguish between an entire wasted order and individual items removed from an order so records reflect what actually happened.
Keep Loss Values Visible
Keep affected quantities and associated values available for clearer review of operational losses.
Create Consistent Waste Records
Use reasons, dates, users and supporting details to make waste events easier for managers to review.
Support Inventory Accuracy
For inventory waste, record the lost quantity and write-off value through the dedicated inventory-waste workflow.
Corrections Without Side Effects
Logged the wrong item? Deleting an inventory waste entry restores the stock it deducted.
Controlled by Role
Only admins and managers can log or delete waste entries, so the record stays trustworthy.

What can Kappino Waste Management track?
Kappino provides separate views for wasted orders, wasted items and inventory waste. Wasted orders capture order-level loss, wasted items capture individual items, and inventory waste records inventory losses such as spoilage or damage.
Can I record waste from an individual item without wasting the whole order?
Yes. The Wasted Items workflow is designed for individual items binned from orders that are still being served, so the rest of the order can continue normally.

Yes. The Inventory Waste workflow is designed for spoilage, damage and other inventory losses. The Log Waste interface allows the team to select an inventory item, enter quantity, choose a reason and review the value written off.
Can I add notes or photos to an inventory waste record?
Yes. The Log Waste interface provides optional notes and photo uploads, with the supplied interface allowing up to three photos to be attached.
Which waste reasons can I record?
Kappino offers six reasons: Expired, Burned, Damaged, Testing, Staff consumption and Other. AI Inventory analytics then show how much value each reason costs you.
