# Accounting App

The Accounting App is designed to be a lightweight accounting management software for small business, to help teams keep track of project and business invoices, quotes and expenses. In addition one can also track vendors and clients - and associate them with invoices and expenses.

The following features are available in the App

  • Add and manage client lists (in parallel to project client lists)
  • Business products and services
  • Vendors - people we pay for services
  • Business quotes
  • Invoices - money coming in to the business
  • Add and manage Expenses

TIP

You will need access to the Accounting App from your line manager to access the features described in this documentation.

# Accounting Settings

Start on this Accounting Settings Page (opens new window), to change the settings for your organisation's accounting team.

TIP

The information you enter here will appear in all your quotes, invoices and expenses.

Accounting Software Settings

It is important that you start by setting this information at the beginning of your set-up and test the SMTP settings.

Enter all your business information as you need it to appear in your official accounting docs. Enter the SMTP settings for the email address you would like to use to email clients with invoices and quotes. This is so that clients see your company domain from your invoices and associate your invoices with your business.
