Month-end for the accountant
the month closed and handed over
Orla files every row with its category and its paper, checks the month against your banks, and closes it on a checklist. Your accountant gets a free seat and the month as files for Xero or QuickBooks.
The checklist
A month that closes on a checklist
and says what still holds it
- Rows without a category
- 0
- Waiting for a signature
- 1 · holds
- Balances match the bank
- Yes
- Receipts missing
- 3 · noted
- What holds, what is noted
- Rows without a category, payments waiting for a signature and balances that differ from the bank hold the close. Missing receipts and unpaid bills are noted, not held.
- Closed is closed
- A closed month is read only. Reopening takes an owner or an admin and a reason.
Receipts
Every row with its paper
asked for, not chased by hand
- Figma$600 · 2 OctAsk Alex
- Uber$38 · 9 OctAsk Mira
- Hetzner€84 · 12 OctAsk Alex
- No paper
- One list of rows without a receipt, and Ask for receipts sends it to the teammate who spent.
- The Bookkeeper
- Orla's Bookkeeper files categories and receipts and leaves the rest as cards for a person.
Handover
Handed over as files
for Xero or QuickBooks
- Journal
- Xero, QuickBooks
- Bank statements
- 4 accounts
- Payments with their signers
- 38
- Invoice PDFs
- 12
- Manifest
- What is inside
- A journal your accountant imports
- Double entry, mapped to their chart of accounts. It will not export while a row lacks a category or a code.
- The whole month in one archive
- Journal, statements, payments with who signed them, invoices and a list of what is inside.
The accountant's seat
A seat for your accountant
free, and unable to move money
- ReadsEvery account, row and report
- ManagesInvoices, contacts, documents
- ClosesThe month
- NeverMoves money out
- Free, and not counted
- The accountant's seat costs nothing and does not count against your seats.
- VAT returns and the tax center
- VAT returns, tax lines and cost basis, for information. Orla files nothing with any authority.
On autopilot
What goes by itself
and what still waits for you
Goes by itself
- A bill or a payout inside its budget in the mandate
- From Airwallex, PayPal or the account inside Orla
- An agent's card or API spend inside its cap
Waits for you
- A new payee, and bank details that changed
- Anything past a budget or a limit
- Every payment from Mercury, Slash, a Safe or a wallet you sign
The brakes above both
- $2,000 a payment and $10,000 a day until you change them
- Loosening a limit waits 24 to 72 hours
- One pause stops every payment at once
