    Check and customize the Accounts table

    Once you have entered the transactions, you can check the Accounts table. You will have an overview of your assets, liabilities, income and expenses, which allows you to keep your balance under control.

    Customize the Accounts table to suit your needs: you can add, delete and edit accounts, groups or descriptions.

    assets

    Enter Opening Balances

    In the Opening column enter the opening balances of the Accounts. Negative asset account amounts are entered with a minus sign in front.

    Enter the balances of the previous year

    If you are creating a new accounting and you want the amounts of the previous year to appear in the statements to be printed, you must insert the values in the appropriate column. Go to the Previous view and in the Previous Year column enter the values.

    Get the Profit and Loss Statement and the Balance Sheet

    At any time of the year you can create your Balance sheet, which is a financial report of your assets, liabilities and equity and the Profit and Loss statement, which includes income and expenses. You will achieve optimal reports because you can always modify the data until they are perfect. You have the possibility to print out your statements or save them in PDF format.
