WHAT IS DIRECTOR?

What is a Director-level account? 

Director is an addition to your Craftable subscription allowing for data management across multiple stores/departments.

For example, you can manage lists of Items, Vendors, Recipes, and Team Accounts from a Director account.

Additionally, Director Reports give you the ability to aggregate data from the Stores. 

Watch the video below to see a full overview of the configuration and functionality of a Director account in Craftable!

What Director looks like after you log in to Craftable:

In the above image, our Stores are called "Turnip the Beet" and "Lettuce Taco Bout It", and they're both nested under our Director brand, called "Craftable Hospitality". The setup above shows just one brand with two Stores underneath, but depending on your business and concepts you can have multiple Director brands if you need to segment your Stores by concept. 

Once you have selected a platform (Foodager, Bevager, etc.) from your Director brand, that platform will open. You will know that you are inside your Director brand by the slanted, white "Director" banner up in the top-left corner. 

To navigate to other platforms at Director or your Stores, click on the name of your Director Brand in the navigation bar at the left. 

Director Set-Up

Your Director brand can be configured in several ways.  The Director brand may include any combination of Bevager, Foodager, House, Books, and Analytics. The Stores under your Director brand may have a mix of activated platforms. 

For instance, in the image below you can see all platforms are active for our Director level, but "East Side Bar" does not utilize Foodager, and "Cocktails on Maine" does not utilize Bevager. 

Director Configuration

During the onboarding process, your Onboarding Specialist will work with you to set you up on Craftable based on your processes and our recommendations of best practices for how you run your business. Changing this configuration after the fact is not usually possible, so we recommend discussing your processes thoroughly, to ensure you're set up on Craftable in the best way possible. 

Many areas of Craftable are interconnected, so deciding to manage one type of info at Director has flow-on effects - you may need to manage other aspects of your data at Director, as well. For instance, you can choose to manage your Vendors at Director but manage Items at the Store level, but if you choose to manage your Item list at Director, you must also manage your Vendors at Director. For specific questions on this please speak with your Onboarding Specialist, or if you're post-onboarding feel free to contact our Support Team for help.
