Backend numbers are different for restaurants than for any other business. Food cost fluctuates daily. Tips need to be reconciled. Sales data pours in from your POS system at the end of every shift. Somehow, you’re supposed to make sense of it all. At All About Businesses, we work with restaurant clients running Toast and Square – two of the most widely used POS systems in the Pacific Northwest – and Restaurant365 is a specialized platform that integrates directly with both to help you get a clear picture of what your business is doing financially.
We are a certified Restaurant365 partner, and experienced with the POS integrations that are used throughout the restaurant industry. We enter and manage vendor invoices directly within R365, helping owners keep accounts payable organized and food, beverage, and supply costs accurately categorized. Whether you are a single-unit operator thinking about expansion, or a multi-location franchisee, we’ll translate data from sales, payroll from shifts, and weekly order costs into a big-picture look at your success!
How We Support Restaurant Owners
Our biggest flex as a Restaurant365 partner is that our team is specifically trained to work with the platform. This allows us to translate your data into performance insights and help you make decisions about how to scale. Some of the bookkeeping services we offer include:
- Daily or regular sales reconciliation
- Accounts payable management
- Vendor invoice tracking
- Payroll and tip reconciliation
- Restaurant-specific chart of accounts
- Period-end financial closes
- Financial reporting for owners
No matter what POS system you use, your data system tracks every sale, every void, and every comp that needs to be accounted for. If that data isn’t reconciled correctly, it’s hard to understand where your money and product are going. All About Businesses fills the gaps and pieces all your information together so that you can get the bottom line, rather than getting bogged down with details.
Why You Still Need a Bookkeeper
A lot of food service owners get started with R365 and then hit a wall, because they can’t find a bookkeeper who knows how to use it. We hear this story regularly. Working with an accounting team that is familiar with the system helps restaurateurs get accurate financial data – right from day one. Even if you already know how to navigate Restaurant365, our professional bookkeeping services help you prepare for tax season and manage day-to-day workflows. At the end of the day, you need to trust cost data, labor reports, and financial reports that actually report what’s happening in your establishment.
We love working with multi-location restaurant clients because the accounting complexity scales fast. When you have multiple sets of books, multiple payrolls, and one set of owners who need a clear picture of their brand, you need an accounting team that can hold all of it together without losing details!
