HI, I am a new user for Manager. my concern is the part of choosing overall accounting basics of accrual vs cash. My business is cash based and I would like to manage it that way. but the software has no edit feature to change to cash based.
The guides shows where to change it, But I don’t see it in the desktop version. is this option only in cloud version ?
Welcome to the forum @ShaneNayani
Your post was moved to it’s own topic since it wasn’t related to the original post.
Now, accounting basis is a reporting option in Manager that can be set in the summary as well as in individual reports where applicable.
You can refer to these guides for more detail:
Hi, thank you for your reply, however I have not yet found the guide more useful yet, as I mentioned in my initial query the EDIT part in the summary I don’t see it. Even after reading through the guide again I am unable to find. let me try and past a SS here.
That’s because you have not activated any of the tabs where accounting basis would apply.
Activate Sales Invoices tab by following this guide:
And the option to switch to cash basis should be available.
Edit: The option already appears in the image you posted and is already checked:
See the last checkbox here
Yes, I have checked this box, but the I did not see any drop down menu which enabled me to choose between the two types. I am sorry for being a noob.
I am setting up this accounting package to manage a small restaurant business, together with using my knowledge to get a good picture of running the business. I am getting confused as to which expenses would require daily input and which ones I can enter in the journal, how the two will be different. I have already setup some basic expenses that I incur in the expenses on Profit & Loss Statement.
P.S. Cash based expenses almost 90% and income earned varies from payments made mobile and cash.
Thank you.
No need for a drop-down menu, checking and unchecking the box changes the report basis:
Hence the guide needs to be updated.
Amen.
Thank you for the clarification good sir. I will continue to look through the system and continue feeding data.
