    Why a Back-Office System is Beneficial for Restaurants

    By Taren Martin | Blog | Comments are Closed | 11 June, 2024 | 0

    Managing a restaurant is a lot of work that requires a lot of time, data analysis, and refiguring schedules and inventory, so using a software system to manage efficiently and effectively is going to benefit your restaurant and will become an invaluable piece of running your business.  Whether you run one restaurant or 100 restaurants, when you utilize and integrate your back end systems, it will have a ripple effect of ease within your business.  Here are just a few ways you can improve your restaurant with this tool.

    1. Increase Manager Efficiency

    Who wouldn’t want to maximize efficiency while also improving accuracy? Managers have so many tasks on their plate, and it is almost impossible to let something fall through the cracks without proper assistance. Insert integrated back-office operations! With back-office software, managers are able to optimize their workload while also getting more precise and educated data about their restaurant. 

    • Accounting and Payroll Automation – Managers can kiss the pen and paper goodbye and have a complete view of their restaurant’s finances in one, easy to use system.  Labor hours can be pulled straight from your POS system and automate data importing directly into your accounting and payroll software.
    • Scheduling – Having a web-based scheduler with features like adjustable sales forecasting makes labor scheduling a breeze.  You can see real time data and metrics making it easier to reach your labor percent goal and help improve your bottom line.  
    • Inventory and food cost management– This software tool will help you with detailed plate and recipe costing and cut your inventory counting time in half by allowing you to do it all digitally!

         2. Increase Vendor Success

    Another advantage to investing in a back-offices system is the ability to better track and improve vendor spending. Vendor invoices are automatically imported and you no longer have to manually enter data.  You can trust you always have the most up-to-date inventory prices, and can even use your smartphone to count inventory. With detailed plate costing you can be sure you are charging the right amount per plate and can create detailed recipes to compare what you are spending to what you are selling, so you know exactly what you need to order more or less of.  The accuracy in all of this data is going to help your business save money and lead to less food waste. 

    There are a myriad of benefits that come with streamlining your back office operations and when you integrate your back-office with your POS system, you will have everything in one database making it easier to access information. Along with the benefits that we have touched on today, there is also the advantage of being able to increase customer satisfaction by offering a well operating business.  If you have not switched from paper to digital for all of your restaurant management needs, this is your sign!
