Address Accuracy

- Verify with vendors: Confirm they can find the location
Organization
- Add all locations upfront: Set up all addresses you use regularly
- Review regularly: Keep addresses current
- Remove unused: Delete old locations to avoid confusion
Multi-Location Restaurants
If you operate multiple restaurant locations:
