Company & locations

Your company is the top-level organisation in DigiChef. It ties together your billing, your users, and — if you operate more than one site — all of your store locations. Everything in DigiChef belongs to a company.


Single-unit vs. multi-unit operators

When you create your company during account setup, you choose whether you operate a single location or multiple locations. This shapes how DigiChef presents your data.

Single-unit operators have a single store and a single set of products, recipes, and orders. Everything lives in one place.

Multi-unit operators have multiple stores (locations) under one company. This lets you:

  • Import invoices separately per location
  • Run inventory counts per store
  • Compare performance across locations from a single account
  • Share recipes, products, and suppliers across all your locations

TIP

If you're a single-unit operator today but plan to expand, you can add locations later without having to start over. DigiChef is built to grow with you.


Managing your locations

To view and manage your store locations:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Stores.
  2. Here you can see all your active locations and add new ones.

Adding a new location

  1. Click Create Store.
  2. Enter the Store Name, e.g.: Downtown Location.
  3. Click Save.

Once a store is created, you can assign invoices, inventory counts, and users to it.


Managing users

Your company can have multiple users — for example, your GM, head chef, and accountant might all need access to DigiChef.

To manage users:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Users.
  2. Click Invite User.
  3. Enter the user's email address.
  4. Click Send Invite.

The invited user will receive an email with a link to set up their account and join your company.

INFO

Invited users join your existing company — they don't need to set up their own subscription. Only the company owner's account is tied to billing.


Billing & subscription

Manage your subscription, plan, and payment details from the Billing page.

From here you can:

  • View your current plan and usage
  • Switch between monthly and yearly billing
  • Update your payment method
  • Download past receipts
  • Add receipt email addresses — useful for sending copies to your accountant

TIP

Switching to yearly billing saves you the equivalent of two months compared to monthly billing. If DigiChef is part of your regular workflow, the annual plan is worth considering.

DigiChef offers a 30-day free trial when you first subscribe — no credit card charges until your trial ends.


What data is shared across locations?

In a multi-unit company, some data is shared across all stores and some is specific to each store:

Shared across all storesPer-store
Products & product costsOrders / invoices
Recipes (plating & prep)Inventory counts
Suppliers
Conversions
Menus

This means you build your recipes once and they're available to every location — while each store tracks its own purchasing and inventory independently.
