Beverage inventory methodology
Formulas, definitions, and ExactPour's early-operations quarterly panel from Q1 2024 onward. First-party research, not fabricated industry folklore. Start with bar metrics if you need the dictionary, then the 2026 methodology note, then the quarterly archive.

Method first, then the product
Compare carefully
Treat published ranges as context, not targets, until your counts and POS window match the same assumptions.
Operationalize
Use ExactPour to keep the same math current from barcode counts, invoices, and nightly POS sync.
Talk with ExactPour
Build a baseline from your own counts
Research pages explain the math. ExactPour runs it every week from barcode fills and POS sales. Book a walkthrough to see the loop.
