The P&L

Where the money went, every week.

The P&L never stops. Statements and invoices go in; income split by platform, costs under the categories they belong to, and profit stated twice — before VAT and after it — come out.

How it works

How it works

  1. 01

    What you send

    Your bank statements, which you upload yourself and which show your sales and your other costs, Coming your delivery-platform statements at setup, and your supplier invoices as they arrive — photographed or forwarded.

  2. 02

    What I set up

    Your sales split by platform, your other costs sorted into categories, and your suppliers, recipes and channel rates, set up with you. Live in days.

  3. 03

    What Telvo does each week

    Reads every invoice line — item, pack size, quantity, price — files it under its cost category with the date it arrived, and puts the week’s P&L together from what has gone in.

  4. 04

    What you check each week

    Income by platform, costs by category, profit before and after VAT, and anything flagged: an invoice line it wasn’t sure of, or a week with cash missing.

What it does

Weekly profit and loss

Invoices, photographed or forwarded

Supplier invoices arrive as paper in a delivery and as PDFs in your inbox. Both go in the same way. Every line is read off and filed under the right category, so the P&L stays current.

  • A photo of the delivery note, or the PDF straight from the email
  • Item, pack size, quantity and price read off each line
  • Filed under the right cost category as it goes
  • Anything unclear is held for you to check, never guessed

A P&L split by the app the money came from

The platform doing the most volume is often not the one paying you the most, and a single turnover figure cannot tell you which. Income is split by channel, costs sit under the categories they belong to, and a week with cash missing from it is flagged.

  • Income split by platform
  • Costs under their categories, from the invoices already going in
  • A week with cash missing from it, flagged
  • Upload your bank statement Coming
  • Expenses categorised for you in the app Coming

Figures are reconciled against your bank statements where they match, and flagged where they don’t — nothing is estimated silently.

Profit before VAT, and profit after it

Profit before VAT is income minus operating costs. Profit after VAT also takes off the VAT owed to HMRC on that income.

  • Operating profit before VAT, and after it, side by side
  • The VAT owed to HMRC shown as the gap between the two
  • Drawings shown as a distribution, not counted as a cost
  • Every figure ties back to the transactions it was summed from

Before you ask

Questions about the P&L

Do I have to set this up myself?

No. Setup is done with you — suppliers and recipes together, and your channel rates read off your own statements.

My invoices are a mess. Some are handwritten.

Most are, and printed ones read fine. Handwritten is harder — anything unclear is held and flagged rather than guessed, because a number you can't check is worse than no number. Bring one to the demo and watch it go through.

Do I have to change my EPOS or my platforms?

No. It sits alongside what you already run and doesn't take orders, print tickets or touch service. A tool that needs you to change the shop first never gets used.

Your own week, as a P&L
