Know what every event actually made.

Every event saves its own set of numbers: what you charged, what the food cost, and the profit left over. The costs come straight from your real recipes, so the margin is real, not a guess.

The Financial Vault is the money side of every event, saved in one place. It costs each dish from your real recipes and ingredients, so the number you see while you build is the same number you see in your reports. You can watch the margin move while there's still time to change the menu, instead of finding out at month-end.

The problem this solves

By the time the spreadsheet says a wedding lost money, the wedding is over. Havenue shows you the revenue, the food cost and the profit on every event while the quote is still open and the menu can still change.

How it works

  1. Costed from your real recipes: Every dish is priced from the ingredients and recipes you already set up, not a number typed in by hand.
  2. Watch the margin live: As recipes, menus or guest numbers change, the cost and the GP% update with them.
  3. Quote without polluting your numbers: Quotes stay out of your real reports, so your totals only ever show events that actually ran.
  4. Fix it later, keep the history: Swap a dish or correct a portion after the event; the change is saved and the original is never lost.
  5. One Vault feeds every report: Profit & Loss, COGS and set-menu margins all read the same Vault, so there's no second spreadsheet to reconcile.

What you get

  • Real-time GP%: Price for profit before you send the quote, not after the month-end surprise.
  • One cost, everywhere: A dish costs the same in the builder, the Vault, your reports and your dashboard. No more arguing over numbers.
  • Built from real ingredients: Costs come from your actual recipes, so the margin you quote is the margin you make.
  • Clean actuals: Only real, finished events count, so your reports are never inflated by quotes.
  • Every change is on the record: Late edits are saved with who made them, so the history is always there.

Who this is for

  • Finance & GM
  • Owner / Operator
  • Cost Controller
