Key concepts

🧩 Modules & permissions

Modules (Sales, Restaurant, Imports…) are enabled per company by subscription. Inside a company, access is granted through Roles: each screen has independent view/create/edit/delete/post permissions, with finer level-3 scopes for some screens.

📄 Document lifecycle

Documents (invoice, journal entry, voucher…) live in two states: an editable Draft, then Posted — posting generates the journal entry automatically and freezes the figures. Every posted document has a “View journal entry” button.

🔢 Automatic numbering

Every document type has its own counter (prefix + sequence, e.g. INV-00001) managed in the Counters screen.

🕐 Time & currencies

Dates are stored in UTC and shown in your local time. The system is multi-currency with dated exchange rates; currency gain/loss entries are generated automatically on settlement.

Quick-start path (new company)

  1. Sign in, then review Settings: company profile, VAT number, base currency, tax-inclusive pricing policy.
  2. Prepare the Chart of Accounts — it can be generated from an activity template.
  3. Open a fiscal year and its periods.
  4. Define branches and warehouses.
  5. Add items with units, prices and VAT rates.
  6. Add customers and suppliers with opening balances.
  7. Configure users and roles.
  8. Start daily work: purchase invoices to stock in, sales invoices, then vouchers for collection and payment.
💡 Tip: Press Ctrl+K anywhere in the system to open the quick-navigation palette and jump to any screen by name.
