Each node represents an automated step. Connections show how data and decisions move through the workflow.
Detailed explanation of each automated stage in the workflow.
Workflow automatically triggers on the first day of each month to begin comprehensive menu analysis. Sets up data collection parameters for the previous month's performance.
Computes popularity rankings, profit margins, and contribution margins for each menu item. Creates menu engineering matrix categorizing items as stars, plowhorses, puzzles, or dogs.
Evaluates items with profit margins below 65% or popularity rankings in bottom 25%. Routes high-cost, low-popularity items for pricing adjustment recommendations.
Generates comprehensive dashboard showing menu profitability analysis, implemented changes, and projected financial impact. Sends report to management team with actionable insights.
