Frequently Asked Questions

Can the initial inventory be uploaded during the configuration process?

Nope. We recommend scanning spirits and barcoded items, especially liquor, since WISK uses precise weight data to track every ounce. For large wine lists or private imports, we can upload your product catalog in advance so your team can search and link them easily during setup.

Does WISK integrate with FinTech?

Yes — WISK integrates directly with FinTech to import invoices automatically. This keeps your product costs and inventory updated without scanning or uploading files. Learn more here.

Do you offer any integrations with POS systems?

We integrate with Micros (via Omnivore) and over 50+ POS systems. This enables powerful features like actual vs. theoretical reports, recipe costing, and menu profitability analysis. See full list of integrations

Is there a browser-based app available for the property team to use?

The mobile app (iOS) is perfect for inventory counts, but your team can also use our web portal to: Review and edit counts Approve invoices Manage users and roles Access detailed reports
