Accounting built for schools.

What is coming

Accounting will sit on top of the finance work schools already do: fees, invoices, student payments, expenses, budgets, and cashbook. Routine operations will post to the general ledger automatically. One source of truth — not a fees balance in one place and an accounting balance in another.

Designed for the bursar first

Normal school users should almost never see Debit and Credit. Accountants configure mappings once; day-to-day work stays in school language.

• Generate a tuition invoice → student receivables and tuition income update automatically
• Parent pays cash or EcoCash → cash/mobile money and receivables update automatically
• Receive or pay a supplier bill → expenses, payables, and bank update automatically
• Transfer between cash and bank → both accounts stay balanced

Manual journal entries remain available under Advanced for accountants who need them.

Accounting workspace

Overview

A management-friendly dashboard: cash and bank, receivables, payables, income this term, expenses this term, and surplus — with charts for cash position, fee ageing, and expense categories. Multi-campus schools can filter by campus.

Banking

Cash on hand, bank accounts, EcoCash and other mobile money, petty cash. Each account shows system balance, statement balance, and difference — with reconciliation, transfers, and CSV statement import as the practical first step.

Receivables

Built around students, not generic customers: invoices, payments, allocations, class, campus, parent, fee category, current term, historical arrears, and ageing.

Payables and expenses

Proper supplier management, bills with line items and due dates, bill payments, and accounts payable ageing — Draft → Approved → Partially Paid → Paid → Voided.

Chart of Accounts and Advanced

Ledger accounts, opening balances, accounting periods, journal entries, and corrections stay available when you need full accounting control.

Reports

Branded, printable reports schools actually use:

• Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, Trial Balance, General Ledger
• Fees billed vs collected, debtors ageing, collection by fee category, class, and campus
• Expenses by category and supplier, payables ageing, budget vs actual
• Cashbook, bank reconciliation, and cash movement

What comes after the first release

Once the core is stable: fixed assets and depreciation, VAT/tax configuration, recurring journals, prepayments and accruals, payroll journal integration, multi-currency gains and losses, year-end closing, and stronger audit controls. Those will not block the first school-ready release.

How to follow along

Accounting is on the roadmap. Start a free term today for the modules already live, and we will announce Accounting here when schools can turn it on.
