Notes
How it counts. And where it stops.
Net sales come from Toast's daily labor report for the same restaurant and day, the figure Toast itself divides by. job_cost_pct_of_net_sales on each row sums across jobs to the restaurant's labor percentage for the day; over a longer period, sum total_cost and divide by the period's net sales instead.
Raw tables it reads
