Banks

Every account money moves through, with a live balance on each.

In the app: Sidebar → Cash & Bank → BanksEvery feature described here is free.

What this screen is for

Whenever a sale, purchase, receipt, payment or expense is marked Bank, it has to land somewhere. This is that list.

How to get here

Sidebar → Cash & BankBanks.

The screen, part by part

Total Bank Balance sits at the top — every account added together. This is the same figure as Bank Balance on the Dashboard.

Step by step

Setting up

  1. Add Bank Account for each real account, including any mobile-money account you take payments into.
  2. Give each a title staff will recognise at the till — they pick from this name under pressure.

Reconciling against a statement

  1. Open History and filter to bank transactions for the month.
  2. Tick them off against your bank statement.
  3. Anything on the statement but not in the app is a missing entry — usually a bank charge, which belongs on Expenses.

Good to know

  • Balances are calculated, never typed. They are the sum of everything routed through the account. If a balance looks wrong, a transaction is wrong, not the balance.
  • A negative balance shows in red on the Dashboard — usually it means expenses were booked against an account before the income was recorded.
  • Bank balances are company-wide: one set of accounts shared across the whole business.
