Restaurants and cafes

Accounting software for restaurants and cafes

Keep daily takings, supplier bills and VAT in order, and see your margins.

A restaurant or cafe has daily takings, many small supplier bills, a high share of cost in food and wages, and several VAT rates. AvrioBooks lets you record daily takings from your till summary by journal or invoice, enter supplier bills with attachments, and reconcile card settlements and cash banked to your bank statement with bank rules for the repeats. Track stock with inventory (Premium plan), and prepare VAT returns with Making Tax Digital if you are registered. Segments (Standard plan and above) show results by site.

AvrioBooks does not connect to tills, ordering or booking systems, and it does not run payroll or rotas. Enter or import daily totals instead. Read the convenience store and retailer guide and gross margin vs markup.
