the controller usually uses these programs for his presentations, etc

many industries have controllers, awkward to see a restaurant needing one

also to note, controllers are usually in place in industries where the operations managers are so overloaded with just keeping operations going that they need controller to "handle" the financial side

There's a margin of error when using computer programs as far as truly reflecting the state of the business goes.

Plus, most operations people do not have the time to gather all the necessary data from different sources needed to truly reflect the financial state of their business. That's where a controller or other accounting/finance person comes in. They're able to look at trends to create forecasts and budgets, and it allows the operations people to focus on operations and making money.
