Revenue

This article explains everything about the forecasted and realised revenue in Eitje.

Updated over a week ago

In Eitje, you can gain insight into your financial data, such as revenue, labour productivity, labour costs, and the labour costs percentage.

There are two types of revenue you can see: the forecast of the revenue in the planning, and the revenue result in the time registration.

๐Ÿ’ก Tip: You can find the revenue at the bottom of the planning or the hours page. If you don't see the revenue, check under the 'Show' button to see if the revenue display is enabled.


Difference between revenue forecast and revenue results

The financial data (revenue, labour productivity, labour costs, and labour costs percentage) can be seen both in the planning and the time registration. The schedule provides a forecast of these figures, while the time registration shows the actual results achieved.

In the schedule, you get a forecast of your expected revenue compared against the shifts planned. In the time registration, you see your actual realised revenue compared against the hours worked.


Revenue settings

Your revenue forecast needs to be based on something. There are two settings possible for this. You can find these settings under the 'Settings' button in the revenue section.

The options are:

  • Base the revenue on the previous four weeks (default setting): on a Monday, you see the revenue from the past four Mondays added together and divided by 4.

  • Base the revenue on same-day sales from last year: you see the same revenue from the same day a year ago.

If you choose to base the revenue on the same day last year, you can also specify the growth percentage compared to last year.

Retrieve revenue via POS system

You can easily see your revenue in Eitje by activating a link with a POS system. This way, your revenue is automatically retrieved from the cash register. We have integrations with the following POS systems:

The integrations retrieve your revenue live (once per hour), allowing you to make immediate adjustments if necessary.

Once your integration is activated and set up, Eitje starts retrieving revenue from the cash register from that moment onward. This means that Eitje does not automatically retrieve past revenue. If you want to see past revenue in Eitje, follow these steps.

  1. Navigate to 'Hours' at the top and click 'Per member'.

  2. Scroll down until you see the revenue bar. If you don't see it, check under the 'Show' button to make sure you have revenue enabled.

  3. Click on 'Revenue' next to the settings at the bottom.

  4. Next to the days you want to retrieve, click on the 'Sync' button.

โžก๏ธ Is your POS system not on the list? Then you can also manually fill out the revenue.

๐Ÿ‘‰ We are always looking for new collaborations. Is the company you're working with missing on the list? Please contact us through this page so we can discuss if an integration is possible.


Fill out revenue manually

If you don't have an integration with a POS system or prefer to enter your own forecast, you can follow these steps to input your revenue forecast and/or revenue realisation:

  1. Navigate to 'Planning' in the menu at the top.

  2. Ensure that the revenue is enabled on under the 'Show' button.

  3. At the bottom of the page, a row will appear with the revenue.

  4. Click on 'Revenue' at the bottom, then choose 'Forecast' or 'Realisation'.

  5. Enter the revenue for each day.

    โš ๏ธ Note: In the planning, you can only enter revenue for today and days in the future. In the time registration, you can only enter revenue for today and days in the past.

๐Ÿ’ก Tip: You can also import revenue from a file. The file must be formatted as follows: eitje_example_revenue_import (1).xlsx You can upload this file by clicking on 'Settings' and then 'Import'. You can import both the forecasted and realised revenue. You can also select the revenue group for which you want to import revenue.
