The Problem
Restaurant accounting is uniquely painful
Daily sales from multiple POS systems. Tip reconciliation. AP across dozens of vendors. Multi-entity consolidation. Most operators struggle to manage these because they aren’t using dedicated software for restaurant accounting. When you implement a true accounting system for restaurants, you eliminate the manual work of forcing generic tools to fit your unique daily needs.
Weeks to Close
Month-end close drags when data is scattered and missing items surface too late. R365 automates close checklists and flags outstanding tasks early, helping BRG Hospitality cut close from three weeks to eight days.
Disconnected Systems
By the time many operators receive their P&L, the period is already over. R365 delivers daily location-level P&L insights and alerts teams when food or labor costs trend off target.
Manual invoice entry and approval chasing slow teams down. R365 captures, codes, routes, and checks invoices automatically, helping one franchisee cut weekly invoice processing from a full day to 30 minutes.
Every new location adds accounting complexity. R365 simplifies intercompany transactions, consolidated reporting, and entity-level P&Ls so finance teams can scale without adding manual work.
GMs need visibility to own performance, and corporate needs timely numbers from the field. R365 gives every level of the business real-time access to the metrics that matter.
The Results
The numbers don’t lie
Real results from R365 customers who’ve turned accounting from an outdated cost center into an indispensable value add.
