We\u2019ve made accounting simple to use and understand by you and your team, so you can spend the majority of your time on growing your business rather than admin.<\/p>\n<p><strong data-stringify-type=\"bold\">Classic cloud accounting systems<\/strong> were built in the days before automation, when you had to reconcile paper to digital entries, digital entries to bank accounts and then finally reconciling banking entries with accounting.

Already connected banks will automatically trigger the corresponding account creation in Fiskl. Simply open the transaction history for the account to check out the auto-categorised entries.

Need to enter an internal transfer? Simply select the corresponding bank account for the transfer and Fiskl will auto record it as an internal transfer and save the exchange rate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Need to make an account adjustment but worried about which entry is debit or credit? Fiskl simplifies this as well: all you need to decide is whether this is an \u201cIN\u201d transaction (increasing the balance of the account) or \u201cOUT\u201d transaction (decreasing the balance of the account). Then Fiskl assigns it correctly to the ledger and thus accounting becomes easy to understand and hopefully demystified \ud83d\ude09.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>There is more: match and split transactions<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes bank transactions are a sum of multiple invoice payments or combined expenses. Fiskl makes splitting transactions and matching with existing entries very easy as it auto searches the system for potential matches. Everything is linked in Fiskl, so you can find the original entry by simply clicking on the link. You can also upload attachments for any entry so your records are easy to audit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1139 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dvfzvfyc6mte7.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2022\/03\/post-img_3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dvfzvfyc6mte7.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2022\/03\/post-img_3.png 1200w, https:\/\/dvfzvfyc6mte7.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2022\/03\/post-img_3-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/dvfzvfyc6mte7.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2022\/03\/post-img_3-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/dvfzvfyc6mte7.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2022\/03\/post-img_3-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When are Accounting Reports coming<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reports are in the works and coming soon, along with cash or accrual view.
