Characteristics of Integrated invoicing

• Add as many rows as you want without limit, or you can delete rows you don't need.
• You don't need to enter formulas because the calculations are updated immediately and you have a contextual view, like in spreadsheets.
• The columns are customizable, you can change their position, add new ones and change their width.
• Work with the format that suits you best.
• Color the rows to instantly spot outstanding invoices or for any other purposes.

Based on Tables

Banana accounting is based on tables similar to Excel, but with typical accounting and billing settings already set. No need to enter formulas or filters.

• Accounts table
  By setting the Customers register in the Accounts table with the relative addresses, you already have the database to be able to issue invoices to customers.
  
  All data is automatically taken over:
  • Header of the issuing company
  • Company logo
  • Customer address
  • Customer language
     
• Transactions table
  In the Transactions table you enter the data for invoicing and, by inserting the appropriate accounts in the Debit and Credit column, the issue of the invoice is already accounted for.
  
  There are columns for every requirement:
  • Item
    In the Item column, typing in the product ID automatically enters all invoice data, already set in the Item table.
  • Quantity
  • Unit
  • Price
  • VAT Code
  • Amount
  • TypeDoc
    Notes and free text can be entered in the Type Column.
     
• Items table
  This table includes the data for managing the items or services to be invoiced. Each article is assigned an identification ID, and groupings of items and services of the same category are created.
  
  There are various columns available for complete and detailed information to be automatically resumed in the Transactions table when the invoice is created:
  • Item (ItemID)
  • Description
  • Membership group
  • Account (for accounting)
  • VAT Code
  • Unit
  • Selling price
