Add-on module

Accounting
Books that write themselves from your operations.

Double-entry accounts on top of everything your team already does: every invoice, receipt, return, settlement, stock movement, batch and fuel log posts to the ledger automatically, tagged by van, rep, route and customer. Payables, banking, UAE VAT 201, IFRS statements, fixed assets, Corporate Tax and profitability — operated only by your Accounts users.

  • Automatic posting
  • Maker-checker journals
  • Payables & banking
  • VAT 201 & FTA audit file
  • IFRS statements
  • Profitability by van
The workflow

How it runs, start to finish

Built for

  • Distributors and manufacturers who want books without re-keying
  • Finance teams that need VAT 201 built from the documents, not from the ledger
  • Owners who want profit by van, route and customer, not just a total
  1. 1

    The Super Admin sets up

    Tax profile, chart of accounts, posting rules, financial calendar, cut-over date and who may do what. The Super Admin configures but never posts.

  2. 2

    Operations post themselves

    Sales, returns, receipts, settlements, stock movements, manufacturing and fuel become journals. Operations never wait on the books; anything that cannot post waits in a queue.

  3. 3

    Purchases become bills

    The goods receipt is the purchase. Accounts bill the receipt with a three-way match and pay the vendor.

  4. 4

    Banking reconciles

    Import statements, match them to entries, clear cheques into named bank accounts and sign off.

  5. 5

    VAT is filed

    The VAT 201 is built from the documents and reconciled to the ledger; filing locks the period’s tax.

  6. 6

    Close the month, then the year

    A close checklist, lock dates, provisions, the Corporate Tax worksheet and the year-end close.

Capabilities

What you get

Everything below is live in the product today.

  • Automatic posting

    Invoices, credit notes, receipts, settlements, valued stock movements, manufacturing issues and pack-outs and verified fuel reimbursements post themselves.

  • Configure / operate split

    The Super Admin configures; only users with the Accounts role, within their authority profile, post.

  • Authority profiles and maker-checker

    Preparer and approver profiles with amount limits; journals need a second pair of eyes.

  • Chart of accounts and posting rules

    Rules split by product category, customer type or both; periods, lock dates and a close checklist.

  • The goods receipt is the purchase

    “Bill this receipt”, a three-way match with price tolerance and purchase price variance.

  • Payables

    Vendors, purchase orders, bills, vendor credits, payments and AP aging.

  • Staff expense claims

    Receipt photos from any staff member, reviewed by Accounts, posted by category.

  • Banking

    Cash position, bank entries, statement import, matching, sign-off and cheque clearing into named banks.

  • VAT 201 and FTA Audit File

    Built from the documents and reconciled to the VAT accounts, with bad-debt relief and a tax lock on filed periods.

  • IFRS statements

    Profit and loss, balance sheet and indirect cash flow; fixed assets and depreciation; expected-credit-loss provision; Corporate Tax worksheet; year-end close.

  • Profitability

    By van, load cycle, beat, trip, channel, customer, rep and project — with allocations, budgets and a 13-week cash forecast.

  • Dunning

    Statements of account and reminders over WhatsApp and email, stepped by age.

  • Recurring documents

    Recurring journals, bills and store invoices.

Who works in it

Roles and seats

Your Super Admin switches the module on and decides who holds each duty. Only the roles marked “seat” count against what you buy — back-office duties are free.

  • Accounts

    Free

    The only role that operates the books, within its authority profile. Seat-free.

  • Super Admin

    Free

    Configures tax, accounts, rules, calendar and authority — and never posts.

  • All staff

    Free

    Submit expense claims with receipt photos from the mobile app.

FAQ

Accounting questions

  • No. The documents they already create are what the ledger reads. The only extra fields are cost and VAT code on a goods receipt, and those can be completed later by Accounts.

  • The sale still goes through. The posting waits in a queue for Accounts to fix the rule or the account, and then posts.

  • No. E-invoicing is compliance core and comes with every plan. With Accounting, suppliers’ e-invoices also arrive as draft vendor bills.
