Batch traceability follows products from supplier to plate, while reports cover consumption, margins, low stock and cost breakdowns. Unlimited team members can be assigned Owner, Manager or Staff roles without extra charge. GastroCore runs on Android, iOS and the web, and responds to phones, tablets and desktops.
