Non-profit organisations with VAT | Double-entry accounting

Chart of accounts structured with groups and subgroups. Swiss VAT codes are already set up to automatically generate a sample VAT return and the XML file for electronic submission of VAT data on the FTA’s online platform (available only with the Advanced plan). Member and project management using cost centers.

The chart of accounts has a stepped format that allows you to see the composition of the operating result even at intermediate stages.

• You can customize the accounts to suit your specific needs.
• By setting up the member list, you can issue invoices for subscription fees, with the advantage of having them automatically recorded in the accounting.
• The VAT Codes table is updated with the new 2024 VAT rates.
• To speed up data entry, you can import banking transactions using Rules: for each imported transaction, enter a keyword (Rule) to automatically complete the other elements of the transaction (counter account, VAT code, cost center...); in future imports, the program will automatically complete the transaction every time it finds that keyword, significantly reducing workload and minimizing errors.

Many automation features, such as importing banking data using Rules, the sample VAT Form with the new 2024 rates, the XML file for electronic VAT submission, filters, and many others, are included exclusively in the Banana Accounting Plus Advanced plan.
