Q&A with Will English: We received the following question from a CPA and Certified QuickBooks Pro Advisor. Will provides support to other consultants across the nation, and EMS has received national recognition within the Intuit Community for our role in teaching others at a national level.
Question: I have a client that operates four franchise restaurants that currently use QuickBooks for accounting and payroll. We are considering implementing QB Point of Sale for each individual store. I have read that this particular system might not be a good choice for fast food restaurants. I am not highly experienced with this product and would appreciate any additional information or reference material you can provide, and would be willing to compensate you for your time should you desire. Thank you.
Will’s answer: I would be more than happy to discuss some of the drawbacks at no charge. We have implemented POS in a coffee bar setting as well as consulted with several others who have installed it. If you and the client understand the drawbacks, it can work. Let me know what your schedule is over the next few days and we can make a time.
