Banana Template Store | Templates

Banana Accounting templates make it easy and quick to start bookkeeping. They are files (with .ac2 extension) prepared by specialists, and already contain a chart of accounts and other predefined elements. 
You create your accounting file starting from the template and adapt it to your needs.

The Template Store: the collection of templates

Banana Accounting offers a wide collection of predefined templates, available in different languages, countries and types of accounting. New templates are added regularly, also based on user suggestions.

How to choose your Banana template

• Directly from Banana Accounting
  • File Menu > New, which displays the templates available in the Template Store.
• Online in the Template Store.
  • Open it directly in the Banana Web App.
  • Or download the template and open it with Banana Accounting.

What a template contains

Each accounting template file contains:

• File properties (basic data, headers, and currency).
  • If the header includes the text "#KEEPORIGINALDATES", the template keeps the original dates instead of automatically setting the current year. This text is removed as soon as the new file is created.
• Chart of accounts, with predefined groups and subgroups so you can immediately print the Balance Sheet and Income Statement. It may also include cost centers and segments.
• VAT codes with current rates and groupings (for templates with VAT).
• Sample transactions, useful as a guide but should be deleted when starting your own accounting. If there are many sample transactions, the file is named Tutorial (instead of template). Tutorials are created to show how to generate specific reports and printouts (which require a large data base).
• Additional options for specific needs (customers, suppliers, cost/profit centers, etc.).

How to search for a template

The list of available templates in the Template Store is regularly updated. In the template search you can apply different filters:

• Find text → search by title or keyword.
• Language → shows templates in the selected language.
• Country / Region → lists the templates available for a specific country. There are also options for Other countries (specific templates not included in the main list), and Universal (generic templates easily adaptable to any country).
• Category → Business, Personal, Non-profit, Education, Other.
