    Plate IQ has formed a partnership with Square announcing an integration with Square's new Restaurant service. Plate IQ's daily dales software enables restaurants to "automatically input guest payment data from Square for Restaurants into many existing accounting software platforms and create valuable summaries of daily transactions." This integration has multiple benefits including more accurate, faster and detailed bookkeeping and more efficient cost of goods sold management. At my restaurant, we use a very similar software to this called Avero. Avero is integrated with our Aloha POS system and the information is automatically inputted every morning from the day before. As a General Manager, I find software like this necessary to day to day operations. It enables me to generate reports on product mixes, individual server sales, categorical sales and even enables me to monitor labor compared to my revenue.
