Accounting

The chart of accounts and your records

Accounting brings together the nomenclature of your accounts and the records that feed it: the chart of accounts and its import, the statements your bank sends you, and the cash receipts you scan.

Updated on August 14, 2026

What the accounting section is for

A clear account nomenclature, aligned with your accountant's, and the records that feed it.

  • Describe your accounts by number and label, in your own nomenclature.
  • Link a bank account in the chart to a real treasury account.
  • Bring over a full chart in minutes with the Excel / CSV import, and import your statements and receipts without re-keying.

An account = a number and a label

Each line of the chart of accounts is an account, identified by its number and described by a label. You can add a description, set a currency and, for bank accounts, point to one of your treasury accounts. The number is kept exactly as you type it, leading zeros included.

Note

The chart of accounts belongs to your organization. It is neither imposed nor shared: you reproduce your accountant's nomenclature exactly.

Anatomy of an account

A chart account brings together a few simple fields.

  • Number

    The account identifier, entered as text to preserve leading zeros. Unique within your chart.

  • Label

    The account's name, with an optional description.

  • Currency

    An optional currency (3-letter ISO code) when the account is held in a specific currency.

  • Bank account

    For a bank account, an optional link to one of your treasury accounts.

Build your chart

Two paths, depending on volume.

  1. 1

    One-by-one entry

    Open Accounting, then Chart of accounts, and add your accounts one at a time.

  2. 2

    Bulk import

    For a full chart, import an Excel or CSV file all at once.

  3. 3

    Link your bank accounts

    Attach the chart's bank accounts to your treasury accounts to keep everything consistent.
