© 2026 Crunchtime - All Rights Reserved | www.crunchtime.com | 2 QUICKSTART GUIDE Enterprise Manager Post Multiple Periods Overview Say you have a new location that opened midway through the year. They’re ready to enter inventory and labor this week, but Net-Chef is prompting them to start from the very beginning of the year. You could go into Net- Chef and manually post each open period until you get to the current week – but that could take hours! Instead, a system admin can use the “Post Up” feature in Enterprise Manager to quickly post all these open periods for one or more locations. The best part? It only takes a few clicks. Use Case(s) This feature will be most useful in situations where a location has several consecutive open periods, such as: • A Post Calendar is created for a full year for a new location, even if it opens part way through the year. • An existing location closes for an extended period and then reopens. Using the Screen 1. Under the Corporate menu, choose Financial Calendar. 2. Select the Posting button and choose Post Up. (Continued) 2 Note: This feature will maintain the list of active Location Products by ignoring the “Deactivate Products After ___ Post Periods” preference, ensuring no products are deactivated during Post Up. Enterprise Manager > Corporate: Financial Calendar 2 Tip: You can also navigate to the Corporate menu and select Post Up.

© 2026 Crunchtime - All Rights Reserved | www.crunchtime.com | 7 Enterprise Manager Post Multiple Periods (Continued) Eligible Locations A location will be available for Post Up if the following conditions are met: • Location is active. • Location is linked to one or more Concepts. • Location is within the current Franchise Entity. • Location is not a Ship Location. • Location has one or more post periods available to post up based on the selected date. (i.e. the location has one or more posted periods that are <= the selected Post Up Through date.) A Few Notes: Post Up will override any Posting Restrictions that are configured for the selected Locations. In other words, any criteria that would normally prevent a period from being posted due to the Post Restriction settings will not prevent the post-up from continuing. When posting-up Inventory, this process will do the following: • Cancel any scheduled (non-Final for Post) inventories. • Cancel any open Purchase By Invoice transactions. • Cancel any open Daily Prep transactions. When posting-up Labor, this process will do the following: • Automatically review any unreviewed Labor records. If any of these conditions exist, you should examine and address them before performing this process.
