The reports your accountant asks for.

  • Trial balance
  • Profit and loss
  • Balance sheet
  • General ledger
  • Cash movement
  • VAT ledger

Export any of them to CSV. The postings come from your invoices and payments, your stock, your supplier bills and expenses and your foreign-currency sales, so the reports are up to date without anyone typing them in.

And a plain-language view of your moneyProfit, the VAT you owe, how long your cash will last and the year ahead, without reading a balance sheet.

Checks and balances, built in.

Questions owners ask

Do I still need to capture journals by hand?

Mostly not. Invoices, payments, supplier bills, expenses and stock used post balanced journals to your ledger as they happen. For the manual journals you do need, a second person has to post them.

How does bank reconciliation work?

Download your statement from your bank as a CSV file and import it. BX1X catches duplicate and overlapping lines, checks the balances, matches lines to your books and lists what's left for someone to deal with.

Does BX1X connect directly to my bank?

No. There is no live bank feed. You import the statement as a CSV file, which you can download from your online banking.

Which reports can I give my accountant?

Trial balance, profit and loss, balance sheet, general ledger, cash movement and the VAT ledger. Each one exports to CSV.

How does BX1X handle VAT?

Input and output VAT is recorded on each document, fixed when the document is posted and checked against your VAT accounts. The VAT ledger report gives you the detail for your return; BX1X doesn't submit returns to SARS.

Can someone change last month's figures?

Not once you lock the period. Posted entries can't be edited either: a correction is a new entry, and accounting events stay in an audit trail you can export.
