Expenses & P&L · Premium
You know what you sold. Now know what you kept.
Restrofi already counts every rupee coming in. The expense book counts every rupee going out — purchases, till payouts, suppliers, rent, salaries — and turns the two into a profit and loss you can actually act on.
- 21 ready-made expense heads
- Approval limits on every entry
- Operating P&L from your real sales

Approval limits
Three limits, and the arguments stop
Most restaurant leakage is not theft — it is ₹900 spent on something nobody agreed to, four times a week, never written down. Set the thresholds once and Restrofi holds anything that crosses them instead of quietly letting it through.
- Approval limit — any entry above this amount waits as pending
- Till payout limit — a separate, lower ceiling on cash out of the drawer
- Bill photo needed above — no photo, no approval
- Approvers get a notification; one tap clears it
Day close
Counting the drawer, not the whole day
Suppliers & purchases
Every supplier, every bill, every rupee still owed
Record a supplier bill line by line with its GST, pay it in full or in parts, and see a running balance for what that supplier is still owed — including whatever you were carrying before you started using Restrofi.
- Supplier ledger with an opening balance and a running due
- Purchase bills with line items, rates, units and GST
- Part payments — from the till, your pocket, or the bank
- Restock a bill straight into inventory, item by item
- Bills and receipts stored encrypted, never on a public link

How an expense moves
Money goes out
Staff record it — at the counter, on the phone, or from a bill photo
Rules run
Over your limit, or missing a bill photo? It waits as pending
You approve

It lands
In day close, in the supplier ledger, and in the P&L
Photograph the bill. Check the draft. Save.
Point a phone at a supplier bill and Restrofi reads the total, the GST, the date, the supplier, the bill number and the line items, then fills the form for you. It is a draft — you confirm every figure before it is recorded, and the entry remembers it came from a scan. Indian date formats and ₹ symbols are handled; a photo that is not a bill is rejected rather than guessed at.
Profit & loss
The number the sales report never gives you
Sales, the GST inside them, net sales, cost of goods, gross profit, operating expenses by head, operating profit and margin — by day or by month, for one outlet or across the group. Sales come from exactly the same figures as your analytics dashboard, so the two never disagree.
- This month, last month, three months, or the Indian financial year
- Cost of goods = purchase bills + your cost-of-goods expenses
- Operating expenses split across staff, occupancy, utilities and the rest
- Export expenses, purchases or the P&L itself as CSV
It stops at operating profit — there is no tax, interest or depreciation line. It is a trading view of the business, not a statement you file.

Common questions about expenses and P&L
Anything money goes out for. Restrofi ships with 21 ready-made categories grouped into eight heads — cost of goods, staff, occupancy, utilities, maintenance, marketing, platform fees and other — and you can rename those or add your own. Each entry records the amount, the GST inside it, the payment method, whether it came from the till, your own pocket or the bank, an optional bill number and supplier, and up to three photos of the bill. Nothing is ever deleted outright; a wrong entry is voided with a reason so the trail stays intact.
Yes. Set an approval limit, a separate till payout limit, and an amount above which a bill photo is compulsory. Anything that crosses a limit is saved as pending rather than approved, and your approvers get a notification. Pending entries do not touch your day close or your P&L until somebody approves them. Approvers' own entries post straight through — the limits exist for the people you have not handed the keys to.
Restrofi works out what should be in the drawer: cash actually taken that day, minus cash paid out of the till for expenses, minus cash paid to suppliers from the till. You enter what you counted and it shows the difference, short or over. Re-closing keeps the earlier count in history, so a correction is visible rather than silent. It reconciles cash only — UPI and card sales are settled by your gateway, not by your drawer.
Yes. Each supplier carries an opening balance and a ledger — every purchase bill, every payment against it, every payment against the opening balance — with a running figure for what you still owe. A bill can be part-paid. Bills can also be restocked straight into your inventory item by item, when the units line up.
It drafts it. Photograph a supplier bill and Restrofi reads the total, the GST, the bill date, the supplier name, the bill number and the line items, then fills the form so you can check it and save. It is an AI draft, not a guarantee — you confirm every figure before it is recorded, and the entry remembers that it came from a scan.
Sales for the period, the GST inside them, net sales, cost of goods (purchase bills plus your cost-of-goods expenses), gross profit, operating expenses broken out by head, operating profit and operating margin. The sales figure is the same one your analytics dashboard uses, so the two never disagree. It stops at operating profit — there is no tax, interest or depreciation line, so it is a trading view of the business, not a filed statement.
Expenses, suppliers, purchases and profit and loss are included in Premium (₹699 per outlet per month) and in the Chain plan. There is no separate add-on to buy.
