Create Bank Account for the first time

We suggest you delete the Dummy Data in the bank section. Add bank account without putting the opening balance will cause the Paid Up Capital account equals to zero. You could manually add the opening balance for the bank through Opening Balance in Setting.


But since you start fresh on your accounting, you can just enter opening balance while creating new Bank Account and its transaction date. This will automatically assign to the Paid Up capital. It shows that you are just starting your business.


Chart of Account

SimpanKira automatically creates Chart of Account for your business. You can decide to add or delete account at Chart of Account page.


Items

You can either add new items from the Item page or from the create Invoice page or from the Bank transaction page. Should you want to track the item for inventory, then you need to indicate that in the create Item page itself.
