OnlyMetric

Overview

OnlyMetric is a multi-module analytics platform for hospitality cost tracking, unifying supplier, invoice, and staff data into real-time COGS reporting workflows.

The problem

Hospitality teams need to understand true cost-of-goods-sold across suppliers, invoices, and staffing without manual spreadsheet stitching, especially when they need fast, actionable reporting.

The solution

I built a Laravel backend and React.js frontend around a modular architecture where supplier, invoice, and staff data each have dedicated workflows but feed a unified analytics layer. The system is deployed and maintained on Laravel Cloud, enabling real-time COGS reporting.

Features

• Supplier management
• Invoice management
• Staff management
• Real-time COGS reporting
• Multi-module analytics
• Production deployment

Architecture

• Laravel backend organized into distinct supplier, invoice, and staff management modules
• React.js interface connected to Laravel APIs for dashboard and reporting views
• PostgreSQL data layer handling operational reporting and analytics queries
• Managed production deployment and maintenance on Laravel Cloud

Challenges

• Designing a multi-module structure that keeps each domain independent without fragmenting the reporting layer
• Restructuring queries to speed up report generation and reduce repetitive database overhead

Results

The application reduced report generation time by 25% and now delivers live COGS intelligence for supplier, invoice, and staff management workflows in production.
