Restaurant365 implementation services: Get The Foundation Right From The Start.

Restaurant365 can connect accounting, sales, inventory and operating information across the restaurant. But the value of the system depends on the quality of the setup behind it.

Tempo helps restaurant teams move from implementation planning through configuration, validation, training and go-live — with restaurant finance and operations considered together.

Why it matters

Implementation Is More Than Turning The Software On.

Legal entities, locations, calendars, POS data, vendor information, chart of accounts, payment and sales mappings, purchased items, inventory and recipes all affect what the system produces later.

Restaurant365's onboarding begins with foundational organizational setup, then moves into Accounting and Operations implementation based on the purchased package. Tempo helps the restaurant prepare for and work through those connected decisions.

    Connect

    Coordinate POS, vendor and other relevant integrations and make sure incoming information maps appropriately.

    Test mappings, transactions, reporting and operating workflows before relying on the information.

    Define ownership and teach accounting and operations users how their recurring work should happen in R365.

    Go live + adopt

    Move into live use with clear responsibilities, follow-up and routines that keep the database useful.

The two foundations

Make The Numbers Usable. Make The System Work In The Restaurant.

R365 implementation splits into an accounting foundation and an operations foundation. Tempo works both, because a decision in one shows up in the other.

Accounting foundation

  • Chart of accounts + financial structure
  • POS sales and payment mapping
  • Vendor + AP setup
  • Banking and reconciliation workflows
  • Payroll journal-entry workflows where applicable
  • Beginning-balance and cutover preparation
  • Financial-report validation
  • Close-process responsibilities

Operations foundation

  • Vendor items + purchased items
  • Units of measure
  • Vendor integrations
  • Inventory structure + count templates
  • Item-management routines
  • Recipes + menu-item mapping
  • Purchasing and receiving workflows as scoped
  • Operations power-user ownership

Tempo’s role is to build the people and processes around the system so the information stays dependable after go-live.

What we need from you

Good Implementation Requires Participation.

Restaurant365 asks customers to plan for weekly implementation calls, implementation homework and timely provision of data such as charts of accounts, vendor lists and POS information. Tempo sets the same expectation: implementation is collaborative.

  • A clear executive sponsor
  • Accounting and operations points of contact
  • Timely access to source data
  • Decisions on ownership and workflows

Common questions

Common Questions

What does Restaurant365 implementation involve?
Implementation includes planning, organizational and financial configuration, relevant integrations, accounting and inventory setup, validation, training and preparation for go-live. The exact scope depends on the modules purchased and the needs of the restaurant.
What does our team need to prepare for implementation?
Your team will need to provide source information, make setup decisions and participate in the work. Depending on scope, that may include your chart of accounts, location and entity information, vendor records, POS details, inventory information and recipes. Clear accounting and operations points of contact help keep the process moving.
How long does Restaurant365 implementation take?
Timing depends on the number of locations, modules, integrations, data quality and your team’s availability. We establish the implementation plan around those requirements and identify the decisions and preparation needed to stay on track.
