Pandle + Restaurants & Hospitality: Faster Bank Import
Restaurants process hundreds of card transactions daily, plus supplier payments. Reconciling bank statements with POS data is a major headache. If you use Pandle for your accounting, you need a fast way to get bank statement data into the system.
BankScan AI for Restaurants & Hospitality Using Pandle
BankScan AI converts any bank statement PDF to CSV / QIF formatted for direct import into Pandle. Upload your restaurant bank statements and get clean spreadsheets to reconcile against your POS system, suppliers, and HMRC VAT returns.
The Restaurants & Hospitality + Pandle Workflow
Restaurant owners or their bookkeepers reconcile daily card terminal settlements against POS end-of-day reports, match supplier invoice payments, track staff wages and tips, and prepare weekly or monthly cash flow summaries. VAT returns require splitting transactions between standard-rated food sales, zero-rated takeaway, and exempt items.
Key terms you'll encounter: POS reconciliation, card terminal settlement, tronc scheme, wet sales.
