Dayparting
Splitting the day into trading periods and managing each as its own business.
Dayparting divides trading into defined periods (breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner, late night) and analyses sales, labor and menu mix within each rather than across the whole day. It is how an operator finds that a strong dinner is subsidising a loss-making afternoon. It also drives operational decisions like time-limited menus and staffing shape. Opero reports sales, labor and menu mix so each period can be read on its own; note that menus do not switch automatically by time of day, so a daypart menu is managed as menu content rather than on a schedule.
