Features

Everything your accounts team does. In one place.

Invoices with the tax worked out

Each line names a charge, with its SAC or HSN code, rate and tax. Books works out the GST from the place of supply.

  • Credit and debit notes
  • An issued invoice is never edited
  • PDF and email, on your letterhead

Bills and what you owe

Keep the supplier's own bill number. Claim input tax credit, and deduct TDS by section. The bill then shows in Outstandings, with the amount you owe.

  • Reverse charge
  • Bills in dollars, with the exchange difference posted
  • Expense claims and approvals

The bank and the books agree

Load the bank statement file. Match its lines to your entries, and post what is missing. Every cheque has its own record, from the cheque leaf to the bank.

  • Bank reconciliation
  • Cheque printing and deposit slips
  • A reminder when a cheque bounces

Returns from what you already entered

GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and TDS returns are worked out from your documents, as drafts for your accountant. Books also prepares the e-invoice, the e-way bill, GSTR-9 and Form 15CA. You file them on the government's portals.

  • LUT for exports and SEZ
  • TDS challans and interest
  • MSME due dates tracked

Know who owes what, and how old it is

Outstandings show every bill and its age. Set credit limits, send reminders and statements, and pay suppliers by due date.

  • Balance confirmations
  • Advances and write-offs
  • TDS and bank fees on one receipt

From the Day Book to the balance sheet

Reports are worked out from your vouchers each time, so they are never out of date. Every report can be saved as Excel or PDF. Fixed assets, depreciation and the closing checklist are here too.

  • Profit of each branch
  • Group accounts from several books
  • Move from Tally, or keep a copy in it

These screens are drawn to show the idea. The names and figures are made up.

A month end

Anita closes the month before dinner.

An example, not a customer: Anita keeps the accounts at a small trading company in Pune.

  1. The 1st, morning. She loads the bank statement file. Most lines match entries already in Books. She posts the three that are missing.
  2. Before lunch. Outstandings shows who owes what and how old it is. She sends two statements and one reminder.
  3. The afternoon. GSTR-1, GSTR-3B and the TDS challan are already worked out from the month's invoices and bills. They wait as drafts for the CA.
  4. Before dinner. She opens the Profit & Loss, sends it to the owner as a PDF, and goes home.

Safe by design

What keeps the books in order.

  • Its own databaseYour company's books are kept apart from every other customer's.
  • Every change recordedWho changed it, when, and what it was before. Nobody can change these records.
  • Months lockedNothing dated in a locked month can be entered, changed or cancelled.
  • Rights you setSet rights by voucher type and by ledger. Add approvals where you want them.

Who does what

Four people, one set of books.

  • Sales and operationsRaise what you need without learning accounting. Accounts does the checking.
  • AccountsCheck and issue documents, and match them with the bank.
  • The ownerSee revenue, cash, what customers owe you and what you owe. With Shipment 360, see the whole business in the BI Dashboard.
  • Your CAWork in the same books, with their own access. Draft returns wait for them, and the audit trail is there.

Better together

Books
and the rest of your office.

Sales, stock, people and assets all affect your money. With other Keeplee products, their figures reach Books without anyone typing them again.

Shipment 360

For freight companies. Job invoices start as drafts, and issued ones show up in the job's profit.

CRM

A confirmed quotation makes the customer, and the customer gets a ledger.

HR & Payroll

An approved pay run posts its journal: salaries, PF, ESI, TDS and net pay.

Asset Management

An asset's page shows its cost and book value from the fixed asset register.

BI Dashboard

Revenue, costs and profit are read from your vouchers, so the dashboards match the books.

Inventory

Items go on your invoices, and closing stock is posted to the books on the date you choose.

For freight companies: Books with Shipment 360

The job writes the first draft. Accounts issues it.

With Shipment 360, every invoice and bill carries its job's number from the first draft.

The job's page does the adding up.

Issued invoices and bills that carry a job's number add up on the job's page, as income and cost. Charges passed to the customer at cost stay apart, as reimbursements. Cancelled documents do not count. The job takes its charge heads, exchange rates, letterhead, GSTIN and bank from Books. So you set them only once.

Before you start

Questions about Keeplee Books.

What is Keeplee Books?

Keeplee Books is accounting software. You can use it on its own, and it is also included in Shipment 360. It keeps your groups, ledgers, vouchers, invoices, bank, tax and reports.

Who is Books for?

Any business in India that keeps accounts with GST and TDS. You can buy it on its own, and your first month is free. Freight companies get it as part of Shipment 360.

How does Books work with Shipment 360?

A job makes draft invoices and bills in Books. Each one carries the job's number. Accounts checks them and issues them. Issued documents add up on the job's page as income, cost and profit. Reimbursements are kept apart. It covers sea freight, FCL and LCL.

Does Books file my GST and TDS returns?

No. Books works out GST and TDS on each document. From these, it prepares GSTR-1, GSTR-3B, the e-invoice, the e-way bill and TDS returns. These are for your accountant to check. You file them on the government's portals, not from Books.

Can I bill and pay in US dollars?

Yes. An invoice, a bill or a bank account can be in a foreign currency, at a rate. When a foreign bill is settled, Books posts the exchange gain or loss by itself. You can also revalue open bills at a month end or year end.

We use Tally. Can we move to Books, or keep using Tally?

You can do both. Books follows Tally's groups and voucher types. You can bring in Tally's masters and Day Book. At the end of the move, the two trial balances are compared. If your accountant prefers Tally, a copy can be kept in TallyPrime or Tally.ERP 9. We help you with the move.

Where are my books kept, and can I take them out?

Books runs in the browser. Your company's books sit in their own database, apart from every other customer's. You can take any report out in Excel or PDF, whenever you want.

Can my CA work in Books?

Yes. Your accountant or auditor gets their own access to your books. They see the reports and the draft returns. With the right access, they also see the audit trail.

Can anyone change old entries?

An issued invoice is never edited. You correct it with a credit or debit note. Or you cancel it, and it keeps its number. When you lock a month, nothing in it can change. The audit trail records who changed what, and when. Nobody can change or remove the trail itself.
