    Switzerland
    Income & Expense Accounting with vat/sales tax
    Business

    Ideal template for those who have no accounting knowledge and need to manage their company's bookkeeping. The accounting data is entered into tables with a column structure, similar to Excel. To make the work even more intuitive, the accounts and the income and expense categories are descriptive rather than numerical. Calculations are performed automatically, with no need to create formulas or filters, and you get professional results such as the balance sheet, the income and expense report, and the determination of the financial result. Open the template with our WebApp, or download the file from the program and save it under a new name.
