If accounting wasn't your first language at school, any form of paperwork can become a bit daunting and a major distraction from running your business. Complex accounting systems seem to give more grief than results. There is an alternative. eCashbooks are designed to be really easy and industry specific. Our aim is to make bookkeeping a bit less burdensome and a little enjoyable (if that's possible). So here are our most frequent questions, have a read and if you need more questions asked then send us a message.
The dashboard gives you a clear snapshot of your business at a glance.
It shows what’s coming in, what’s going out, what’s overdue, and what’s changed — without needing to dig through reports.
Most users can see how their business is tracking in seconds.
No. eCashBooks does not require bank reconciliation.
You record what matters, when it matters, without matching transactions against feeds.
This reduces admin and keeps the focus on clarity. You can at any time undertake a reconciliation, however at the small business level you need to question the cost/benefit of undertaking the exercise. So long as you're confident you've picked up all your transactions, you'll be fine. Many small business transactions occur outside of your bank account.
