Easier Life for Restaurant

Article Abstract:

An Australian restaurant chose a Canon CX-1 desktop computer to simplify its accounting work. A service bureau could no longer cope with the restaurant's 700 credit card holders. The Canon now handles the general ledger, payroll and monthly accounts on the system, and it has cut the statement processing time from three weeks to one. The restaurant has found the computer good in all respects except the manual.
