A real general ledger, not a fee cash-book with extra steps.
Every fee receipt, payroll run, and procurement bill posts automatically into one GL. Trial balance, balance sheet, and P&L are live reports, not a month-end reconciliation project.
Every module posts here — you don't post it by hand.
Fee income, payroll expense, and procurement bills all post into the same ledger automatically the moment they're approved, not re-entered by an accountant at month end.
Chart of accounts, vouchers, and ledger entries — a real double-entry GL, not a single-column fee cash-book pretending to be accounting.
Every voucher moves through Draft → Submitted → Approved → Posted, with a same-user-can't-approve guard on every entry.
Month-end and year-end close with pre-close checks, freezing trial balance / balance sheet / P&L into a permanent snapshot.
Bank statement lines matched against ledger entries, so “does our book match the bank” has a real, ongoing answer.
Trial balance, balance sheet, P&L, cash book, bank book, and day book — computed live from the ledger, not assembled once a quarter.
Budgets tracked per cost centre with variance reporting, so overspending surfaces during the year, not after it closes.
Fee, Payroll, Procurement, Hostel, Transport, and Library all post directly into this ledger through a shared posting facade — no manual journal entries to replicate what already happened elsewhere.
Tax rate and HSN/SAC master data built in, with e-invoice and TDS-challan support for institutions that need it.
What finance heads ask first
Do we still need a separate accounting package alongside this?
No — this is a full general ledger, not a fee-collection summary. Trial balance, balance sheet, and P&L are generated directly from it.
How does fee or payroll income actually reach the ledger?
Through a shared posting facade every module calls — a fee receipt or an approved payroll run posts its own voucher lines automatically, idempotently, the moment it's finalised.
Can one person create and approve the same voucher?
No — maker-checker is enforced on every voucher, with a same-user-can't-approve guard, so a single person can't push a voucher from draft to posted alone.
What happens once we close a period?
Pre-close checks run, and the trial balance, balance sheet, and P&L are frozen into a permanent snapshot for that period — later changes don't silently alter a period you've already closed and reported on.
Does this handle GST and TDS for our institution?
Tax rate and HSN/SAC masters are built in, with e-invoice and TDS-challan support for institutions that need GST/TDS compliance beyond basic bookkeeping.
