[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] If you own or manage a New York hospitality business, which would include restaurants, bars, nightclubs or hotels, you would rather focus on your customers than managing your back office books.  Manhattan’s hospitality sector caters to millions of tourists, travelers and NYC natives every day, meeting those expectations is the key to getting people to return, and increasingly restaurant and leisure operators are turning to financial analytics solutions for clues about how to keep improving their business performance and operational metrics. Every industry has its own unique bookkeeping requirements, and hospitality industry is no exception to this rule. With increasing competition, razor tight margins, and changing customer expectations, the ability to have 24/7 access to complete, timely and accurate financial data is now more important than ever for the hospitality industry. Unfortunately, many restaurants, bars, night clubs, hotels, casinos, and other hospitality organizations struggle with inefficient and old school legacy accounting systems.

Bookkeeping is one of the areas in your business that cannot be overlooked or it will lead to serious repercussions, besides those which are legal, such as unknown profitability, incorrect tax filing and lack of proper work papers for audits, etc.  Vendors and invoices need to be paid each month, you need to know if your business has positive or negative cash flow, employees need to get their checks and taxes must correctly calculated and lodged.
