Automate Accounting for Toast

Toast POS is a cloud-based restaurant management software that helps restaurants streamline their operations, increase efficiency, and improve customer experience. Toast POS is popular among restaurants of all sizes, from small cafes to large chains.

Toast Sales Summary​

Bookkeep enables you to integrate your Toast POS to automate journal entry postings.

For Toast, we offer a daily sales summary journal entry. For help on establishing the connection to Toast, visit this article.

The sales summary journal entry posts to your accounting platform on a daily basis the sales from the prior day, capturing gross sales down to net sales including discounts, refunds, etc. Additionally, this journal entry breaks down the payments by tender type such as cash versus credit card payments. Bookkeep captures all orders except those with a status of open, voided, denied or error.

note

Bookkeep does not see any older orders that are refunded. For example, if an order was refunded on the same day as the sale, Bookkeep will capture and record that. However, if the sales happened on 7/31 but was refunded on 8/10, Toast does not share that information for older refunds.

Toast also does not share any deposit sales collected. This is unfortunately a limitation of the data shared by Toast.
