Deliveries, till payouts and vouchers in QuickBooks

Each item starts from paperwork you already have: a supplier invoice, a till receipt, a voucher sale or a finance statement.

• Supplier invoices photographed on a phone with the QuickBooks mobile app as each delivery comes in, or emailed in, then matched to an existing bill or turned into a bill in the For review tab
• Food, drinks, packaging and cleaning supplies coded to separate cost accounts, so the profit and loss sets what you buy beside what you sell
• Cash paid out of the till for milk, ice or small repairs recorded with its receipt, so the gap between cash takings and cash banked is accounted for
• Gift vouchers sold and redeemed tracked using the treatment your accountant specifies, with a running list of vouchers not yet used
• Repayments on finance or leases for coffee machines, ovens and refrigeration recorded from the finance company's statements
• If your QuickBooks plan includes class tracking, a class for every venue, letting sales and costs be reported venue by venue
• Bank, card and finance accounts reconciled in QuickBooks against the month's statements, with any leftover difference explained, from takings not yet banked to a supplier payment recorded in duplicate
