March stops being a project
Every invoice and payment posted when it happened. The reports are a read, not a rebuild.
Double entry under every invoice, payment and expense — so the profit and loss is read, not reconstructed in March.
Every invoice and payment posted when it happened. The reports are a read, not a rebuild.
One ledger behind the invoice list, the expense list and the bank — so they cannot drift apart.
A real chart of accounts, real journals, a real trial balance that balances.
The GST report comes off the same ledger as everything else.
Start from the standard one, change what your business needs.
Invoices, payments, expenses and bills write their own journal entries.
Match what the statement says against what the ledger says.
Nine of them, from the same ledger, for any period you pick.
For any period, from the ledger.
That balances, because it is double entry.
What came in and what went out.
Debits and credits, account by account.
Output and input, ready to file against.
Every entry, in the order it happened.
Receivables, aged into buckets.
Payables and vendor bills.
Statement against ledger.
Yours to shape.
Manual entries where you need them.
Against the account they belong to, with the tax credit flagged.
Bring one month of invoices and one channel of leads. You will see the gaps on the first afternoon.
