How It Works
Transactions trigger journals
Bank, invoice, expense, payroll, dividend: each creates a balanced journal automatically.
Trial balance ties
Sum of debits = sum of credits, always.
Manual journals
For adjustments, accruals, prepayments: add manual journals with full audit.
Real-world Use Cases
Year-end accruals
Manual journal for accrued income / accrued cost: flagged as adjustments.
Audit confidence
Trial balance always reconciles. Auditor opens, sees balanced books, no surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this real double-entry?
Yes. Every posting creates balanced debit/credit journal entries against the GL. Not a single-entry shortcut.
Can I post manual journals?
Yes. For accruals, prepayments, depreciation, year-end adjustments. Full audit trail.
What's the chart of accounts?
60+ UK GAAP accounts covering income, cost of sales, expenses, assets, liabilities and equity. Per-trading-entity (you can customise).
Does the trial balance always tie?
Yes. By construction. If a manual journal is unbalanced we block the post and surface the imbalance.
