Overview
In an effort to standardise menus and recipes across the board for all of our stores in the Famous Brands network, Cosoft will be updating the menu to make changes in areas like naming, formatting and stock code conventions. This will help to lower the chances of menu and recipe errors and discrepancies across different menu profiles.

This changeover will happen at month-end, so that the month’s reporting will be complete, and the new month can start with the new codes. Please make sure to follow the below steps at the times indicated to get the best outcome.
