Having to record all inbound cash as income was a deal breaker for me. I wanted to like Firefly, but couldn't because of this. There is literally no other accounting software that works like this.

I, too, use Gnucash. Gnucash is an actual double entry bookkeeping system. Firefly is not. I want to like Firefly, but you cannot properly record all liabilities. Also, you can't mix income and expenses in the same account. For example

I'm a UK accountant, but I'm currently working as a finance software analyst. I spend quite a bit of time coding to solve problems. Normally turning a csv into another csv (Python), or writing Javascript for our ERP (Netsuite). Th

I was recently in this position. As "boring" as this is, I flashed them with Lineage and donated them to a charity that refurbishes and passes tech onto others.

I created a Flask app called holly. It was originally made to record when I'd given my kids different medicine, but has now expanded to an event scheduler, meal planner, and checklists.

I suggest you look at the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) which you need to follow if you list in Europe. Goodwill is only on the purchasors balance sheet. You can push goodwill down to subsidiaries, but only under USGAAP

I am a UK accountant. To my knowledge, under IFRS you cannot put IP on your own balance sheet. If you're bought by another company, it goes on the balance sheet as "goodwill" which is the difference between the price paid and

Whilst not strictly non-fiction, I'm going with The Goal bg Eli Goldratt. It's a novel about accounting. Specifically, Goldratt's Theory of Constraints. It presents the idea that manufacturing accounting is wrong.

I've been using Gnucash since 2016. I import bank statements into it and produce financial statements. I've also tried Firefly and Hledger. I think that Gnucash offers the right mix of UI and reporting for me. I think Hledger look

From "running a business" point of view, get Shopify integrated with your accounting software. Xero is a good start. It will give an actual idea of what your business is doing.

I agree. I suppose the rationale is probably that Andy thinks on balance it's the people that aren't doing anything that will go. Then again, I'm not CEO of Amazon, so noy my shout.
