Accounting Software for Liquor Stores

Liquor retail carries obligations most shops never face: provincial licensing, tight rules on what may be sold and to whom, and audits that expect the paperwork to exist. The books cannot be a summary typed after the fact — they have to be the record itself.

SeroBooks posts every sale to a real double-entry ledger at the moment it happens, with the document attached to the journal, so any figure an inspector questions opens to the transaction behind it.

Tax is applied per line by place of supply across all thirteen provinces and territories, and combined rates split into their federal and provincial halves in the ledger — one payable account per tax actually levied. The Tax report shows taxable sales by rate with zero-rated sales counted, and reconciles itself against the sales ledger.

Filing becomes reading a screen for the period rather than rebuilding a quarter in a spreadsheet.

High-value, high-shrink inventory rewards counting that actually happens: live stock levels per location, cycle counts, adjustments with reasons, and transfers between stores with an in-transit state so a van-load never appears in two places at once.

Product 360 shows margin, velocity and days of cover on any line — the numbers behind a delisting decision.

The counter is keyboard-first and offline-capable, with split payments and card surcharges handled at the till. Holding a sale keeps its stock reserved, so a customer who steps out to fetch a card cannot lose their bottle to the next transaction.

The books keep up on their own, which is the whole point.
