ForteSG introduces powerful new reporting and scheduling capabilities that give multi-unit operators clearer insights, stronger control over labor costs, and faster ways to make data-driven decisions.
This update builds on the foundation established in Spring and Summer, providing operators with additional tools to analyze performance, enhance scheduling accuracy, and streamline day-to-day operations.
“Operators have told us they want reporting that reflects the way they run their business, and scheduling tools that remove complexity, not add to it,” said Bob Looney, CEO of ForteSG. “This release takes that feedback head-on, expanding reporting visibility while refining scheduling features to save managers time and give employees more control.”
Expanded Reports and Charts for Sales, Labor, and Product Performance
Forte expands reporting capabilities with new charts, configurations, and analysis tools, providing operators with deeper visibility into sales, labor, and product performance. These enhancements make it easier to align teams, spot trends, and make faster, data-driven decisions.
Configure Reports to Match How You Operate
With Report Bookmarks, operators can save and share configured report views, so every location stays aligned on the same sales, labor, and performance metrics. Newly introduced Item Tags allow managers to group products by category, ingredient, or concept, making it easier to review sales in the context that matters most to their business.
Surface Trends That Guide Menu Strategy
With Forte’s new Product Mix and Menu Engineering Charts, operators can see popularity and profitability side by side to decide what to feature, re-price, or remove. Additional reports, such as Product Mix Trend, Basket Analysis, Rankings, and Sales Outliers, highlight shifts in performance and customer behavior early, giving managers the visibility to refine menu strategy and protect margins.
Visualize Data Across Core Reports
New built-in charts in the Sales Summary, Flash, Performance, and Manager Log reports make it easier to see sales and labor trends at a glance. By presenting key data visually, Forte enables operators to make faster and more confident decisions across all locations.
Refined Scheduling Tools for Accuracy and Efficiency
Forte’s scheduling updates offer managers greater flexibility to create accurate schedules, ensure compliance, and maintain team connectivity across multiple locations. With new templates, guardrails, and mobile updates, scheduling is faster and more reliable than ever.
Standardize Schedules and Prevent Errors
With Scheduling Templates, managers can build shifts in a familiar weekly calendar view, filtering roles to set schedules more efficiently and consistently. Cross-location guardrails ensure that employees are only scheduled in approved roles and locations, reducing errors and protecting compliance.
Streamline Daily Scheduling Adjustments
Refinements simplify the process of building and reviewing schedules, so managers spend less time in the system and more time supporting their teams. Improved workflows for time-off requests and shift approvals enable managers to maintain accurate schedules while meeting compliance standards.
Keep Restaurant Managers and Teams Connected
Enhanced Mobile Alerts on free iOS and Android apps deliver real-time notifications for schedule changes, approvals, and shift updates. These alerts keep managers and employees aligned across locations so teams never miss a change.
