By accessing this feature under menu items, prepared items, or bar items, you can set up cost alerts to notify you when prices exceed a certain threshold. For example, I highlight the price changes of avocados, which went from $1.03 in March 2025 to a lower price, illustrating how ingredient costs can impact your overall plate cost. If you notice a significant increase in a product's price, it may be time to reassess your menu pricing or ingredient sourcing. I encourage you to explore this tool to better manage your costs."}
