Bookkeeping software for restaurants
Restaurant bookkeeping software has to keep up with daily deposits and vendor charges that never stop. Adopt brings in every bank and card transaction, suggests the category and keeps each account reconciled.
How restaurants handle this today.
Daily deposits. Card batches and delivery payouts land every day, net of fees.
Vendors bill constantly. Food, beverage and supply charges arrive several times a week.
Cash is still cash. Cash deposits have to match what the drawer said.
The manager keeps the books. After close, if at all.
Restaurant bookkeeping, kept up daily
Adopt prepares the work in the background. Your team reviews and approves it, and every approval stays on the record.
