We wanted to share with you some of the reasons restaurant owners are choosing Oracle Food and Beverage technology.
Here is a blog post from Shannon Straub, a Field Marketing Specialist at Oracle:
If you’re a restaurant owner, choosing the right technology partner can be a challenge. There’s so much to think about – features and capabilities, cost, training…you can find a full checklist here.
However, two factors that every restaurant owner needs to have on their list are:
- Stability of the technology vendor
- Vendor’s industry expertise
It was quite a month for many Alaskans - like surviving a major earthquake, just to name one thing.
(Click here for the link to see Jesse "saving" his coffee during the quake).
We have had over 1,800 aftershocks as of yesterday, roads are being repaired, schools are still closed, but no one suffered serious injury - amazing.
At Skurla's, we also started the month with a "jolt" - literally. On November 19th, a truck careened into the front wall of our office. It destroyed the conference room wall, many of the contents, and part of Jeff's office. We are so grateful that this happened before we opened - the outcome could have been much different. See pictures below!
From TSYS and VISA:
Visa is introducing an authorization requirement for return (cardholder refund) transactions. Authorizing a return enables the card issuer to validate the cardholder account, decline potentially fraudulent cards, and minimize chargebacks if the account does not exist or is closed. The return authorization message is intended to improve the return process by enabling cardholders to view a credit/return on their online banking statement in real time, as well as support other issuer services such as text alerts, in order to improve the cardholder experience and minimize return inquiries.
