Production Planning

Central kitchen scheduling and multi-day prep

Never guess how much to make again. Automated build sheets, pick sheets and stock transfers.

Overview

From forecast to finished product — automated

RocketOS takes your sales data, standing orders and par levels, then calculates exactly what your central kitchen or in-house production team needs to make — including multi-day prep schedules, pick lists and distribution notes.

  • Auto-calculated production quantities from sales forecasts
  • Multi-day prep scheduling for bakeries and central kitchens
  • Pick sheets and transfer notes for site distribution
  • Standing order management with recurring production runs
Production Planning

Full Feature List

Every production planning feature

The complete toolkit for central kitchens, bakeries and multi-site production operations.

Planning & Scheduling

Demand Forecasting

Auto-calculate production quantities based on historical sales data, current orders, par levels and seasonal patterns. Reduce over-production and waste.

Build Sheets

Generate daily build sheets for your production team showing exactly what to make, in what quantity, with full recipe references and batch sizes.

Multi-Day Prep Scheduling

Schedule production across multiple days for items that require proving, marinating, ageing or multi-stage preparation. Track prep status stage by stage.

Standing Orders

Set up recurring production orders from sites. Standing orders auto-populate production plans on the specified schedule with the specified quantities.

Production Timeline View

See your entire production schedule on a visual timeline. Drag and adjust production runs, spot capacity clashes and balance workload across shifts.

Production Operations

Pick Sheets

Auto-generate pick sheets from production plans. Warehouse or kitchen staff see exactly what to pick, in what quantities, for which sites.

Distribution & Transfer Notes

Generate distribution notes for deliveries from central kitchen to sites. Both locations see the transfer reflected in their stock levels.

Batch Scaling

Scale recipes to any batch size. Enter the number of portions or total weight and RocketOS recalculates all ingredient quantities and sub-recipe volumes.

Batch Labelling

Print batch labels with product name, production date, use-by date, allergens and storage instructions. Supports day-dot labelling for short-shelf-life products.

Quality & Compliance

Yield & Waste Tracking

Record actual yields against expected yields per production run. Track production waste by reason to improve efficiency and reduce raw material loss.

Production Temperature Logging

Record cooking, cooling and holding temperatures against each production batch. Automatic alerts if temperatures fall outside safe ranges.

Production Efficiency Reports

Track production output vs plan, yield percentages, waste rates and labour hours per batch. Identify bottlenecks and optimise production scheduling.
