Rutba Books

Bookkeeping is mostly re-typing things the business already knows. Rutba Books is the hub every other product posts into: a sale at the till, a payroll run, a stock revaluation — each writes its own journal entry as it happens. What that leaves is the work worth doing: matching the bank, chasing what is late, and closing a period that already adds up.

The 2 Applications on One Login

• Books — The daily surface: invoices, bills, receipts, supplier payments, credit notes, quotes, banking and reconciliation, expenses, collections and the customer and supplier ledgers.
• Accounts — The accountant’s workbench: chart of accounts, journals, tax and periods, budgets, projects, currency, and the financial reports.

What It Does

• Two apps on one ledger - the daily bookkeeping surface and the accountant’s workbench, neither hiding anything from the other.
• Sales invoices, bills, receipts, supplier payments and credit notes, with per-line tax.
• Bank statements read in whatever your bank emits - camt.053, mt940, ofx/qfx or csv - and matched, with reconciliation that must reach zero.
• Payment runs exported as iso 20022, ach or csv under a build, approve, export, settle discipline.
• Recurring invoices, a collections ladder, and a credit gate the till checks before a pay-later sale.
• Fixed assets with depreciation, budgets and variance, cost centres and projects, and foreign-currency revaluation.
• Journal entries posted automatically by the till, payroll, orders and stock - so month end is a review rather than a reconstruction.
• Invoices, statements, quotes and dunning notices delivered from your own mailbox.

Built For

• Business owners who want books that are always current.
• In-house finance teams who live in invoices and bank lines all day.
• Accountants who would rather review a ledger than rebuild one.
• Anyone whose accountant charges by the hour to fix the data.
