# Restaurant accounting software with real double-entry books

A chart of accounts, numbered journal entries and a trial balance that actually balances. Sales, refunds, purchases, wages and expenses each write their own entry as they happen, and a correction is a reversal you can point at — never a silent edit.

## What is included

- Chart of accounts and double-entry journals

## Why it works this way

⚖️

### Your books post themselves

Every sale, refund, purchase, payslip and expense writes its own balanced double-entry journal. Your trial balance is correct at 2 a.m. on a Friday.

🌍

### Works in any country, any currency

You set your own tax rates, service charge, currency, working week and payroll brackets — none of it is hard-coded to one country. Cash, cards, digital wallets, bank transfer and online gateways all settle through the same till.

⚡

### Real time, genuinely

Order to kitchen to waiter to driver to your dashboard — pushed live over websockets. Nobody refreshes anything, nobody shouts across the pass.

## Questions people ask about this

#### Does it really do full accounting, or just sales reports?

Full double-entry accounting: chart of accounts, journals posted automatically from sales, refunds, purchases, payroll and expenses, plus trial balance, balance sheet, P&L, payables, receivables, cost centers, fiscal-period closing, fixed assets and depreciation.

#### Who owns my data, and can I export it?

Your data is yours. Every report exports to PDF and Excel, and you can request full data deletion at any time. Each restaurant is fully isolated from every other one on the platform.

#### Is my data secure?

Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, with daily backups, role-based access for nine distinct staff roles, login lockout protection, and a full audit trail of who changed what and when.
