Restaurant Bookkeeping Services
Clean, organized, POS-integrated books that give you real-time visibility — without the shoebox of receipts.
Restaurant bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording of a restaurant's transactions — sales, purchases, payroll and payments — reconciled against bank, credit card and POS data. FORCS keeps clean, POS-integrated books delivered on time every period so your financials are always accurate and current.
What's included
Daily sales recording
POS sales, tenders, comps, voids and gift cards recorded and tied out to your deposits automatically.

Every account reconciled each period so your books match reality to the penny.
Accounts payable & receivable
Vendor bills tracked, categorized and scheduled; receivables followed so cash keeps moving.
Transaction categorization
A restaurant-specific chart of accounts so every dollar lands in the right place.
Monthly financial statements
Clean statements ready for review — and for your accountant and CPA.
Year-end preparation
Organized, tidy books handed off so tax season is painless.

Bookkeeping is the foundation — get it wrong and everything above it is wrong too
Financial statements, tax returns and decisions all sit on top of your bookkeeping. If daily sales aren’t tied to deposits, if delivery payouts are booked as revenue, or if vendor bills are miscategorized, every report built on those books is misleading. Restaurant bookkeeping is unusually demanding: high transaction volume, daily cash, multiple tender types, tips, comps and voids, and third-party delivery deposits that rarely match gross sales.
FORCS keeps restaurant books the way an in-house controller would — reconciled, categorized consistently, and current.
POS-integrated, so your books match reality
We connect your POS and accounting software — Toast, Square, Clover, PAR Brink, Restaurant365 or QuickBooks Online — so daily sales, tenders and tips flow into your books automatically. Every bank and credit card account is reconciled each period, so your numbers tie out to the penny and nothing slips through.
Behind on your books? Start with a cleanup
Many clients come to us months (or years) behind. We bring your books current, fix miscategorized history, and set a consistent standard so it never happens again. From there, ongoing bookkeeping keeps you close-ready every period and feeds directly into your monthly accounting and financial statements.
Clean books are also what make payroll & tax and year-end painless — and they’re the raw material our automations use to eliminate manual data entry entirely.
Who this is for
Owners drowning in receipts, restaurants with messy or behind books, and operators who want reliable numbers without hiring an in-house bookkeeper.

Bookkeeping — frequently asked questions
Do you integrate with my POS system?
Yes. We work inside Toast, Square, Clover, PAR Brink, Restaurant365 and QuickBooks Online, pulling daily sales, tenders and tips directly into your books so deposits always reconcile.
My books are months behind — can you help?
Absolutely. Catch-up and cleanup bookkeeping is one of the most common ways clients start with us. We bring your books current, fix miscategorized transactions, and then keep them current going forward.
What's the difference between bookkeeping and accounting?
Bookkeeping is the day-to-day recording and reconciling of transactions; accounting turns that clean data into financial statements, analysis and decisions. FORCS does both, so nothing falls through the gap between them.
How do you handle third-party delivery like DoorDash and Uber Eats?
We record gross sales, commissions and payouts separately so your revenue isn't understated and you can see exactly what delivery platforms are costing you.
