Sales fluctuate by the hour. Labor shifts on the fly. Vendor prices change overnight. And yet, most restaurant finance teams are managing these daily realities with back-office systems built for slower, simpler industries.

In the fast-moving world of multi-unit restaurants and fast food, timing is everything, especially when it comes to your financial reporting. Yet too many operators and finance leaders are stuck reacting to last month’s data while today’s cash flow quietly slips away.
