The Accounting section will help you record, classify and analyze the information your company generates. This way you will know both the state of the accounting accounts and the patrimonial and financial situation of your business.

To start using this section and automate your accounting processes, it is advisable to:

  1. Perform basic configuration

    The basic configuration will allow you to automate daily tasks. For this, it is essential that you configure the number of digits of your accounting accounts, the fiscal period and the default accounting accounts from Menu > Settings .

  2. Create the documents first

    In Holded, every time you create a document, its corresponding accounting record is generated automatically. If, for example, you create a sales invoice, its entry will be generated and you will see it in the Journal.

    That is why it is so important that you start by creating the documents within Holded and then review how they have been recorded in your accounting. Keep in mind that there are different types of documents, but the most used are usually sales and expense invoices and payslips.

    If you point to an entry before creating the document that supports it, the registration automation chain will be broken. This will force you to review it on your own in each ledger and edit it each time there is a change in the document.

  3. Import historical data

    Imports are done through different templates in Excel format that you can download from Menu > Import . Once you complete your templates, you will need to upload them to Holded. And, at the end of the import, you will be able to start working with them from the platform.
