Multi-entity Accounting

This multi company accounting software keeps separate books for each of your companies, firms and branches, and gives you the group picture from the same data. It suits promoters and finance heads who wait weeks for a consolidation built in Excel. What it gets right is inter-company entries: you post once, and both sides agree.

How the work flows

A day's work, in order.

Step 03

Inter-company booked once

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Our group has a private limited company, two partnership firms and a proprietary concern. Can all sit in one system?

Yes. Each entity keeps its own books and tax registrations, whatever its constitution. Group reports then combine the ones you choose, so you can see the family business as a whole or any part of it.

How are inter-company balances removed in the group balance sheet?

Because both sides of an inter-company entry are booked together, the balances match. Group reports drop these matched balances, so sales and debtors are not counted twice. Any ledger that does not match is listed for correction.

Can the accountant of one company see the books of another?

No, unless you allow it. Every user is restricted to the companies and branches they handle. The group finance head and the auditors can be given a view across all of them.

Does it work for a group with a factory, a trading firm and showrooms?

Yes. The manufacturing company, the trading firm and each showroom or branch keep their own books, and goods sold between them are booked as inter-company sales. You can compare them side by side for any period.

Does Multi-entity Accounting work on mobile?

It runs in the browser (Web), so it opens on any computer, tablet or phone. A dedicated mobile app can be added for teams that work on the move.

Can Multi-entity Accounting be changed to fit how my business works?

Yes. Kreon builds and supports it, so screens, reports, approvals and rules are shaped to your process. Tell us what is different about the way you work and we will show you how it fits before anything is built.
