Here you can select the default currency used in CashCtrl. Double-click on the desired currency and check the box Default currency or select and create another one via Add.
Once a foreign currency is used in an entry, the main currency can no longer be changed (foreign currencies is a PRO feature).
If no sales tax is used, this step can be skipped.
If the company is subject to sales tax, the appropriate tax rates should be entered. A selection is already available. If the VAT changes, a new rate is created and the old one is set to "inactive". This is done by the user and not by CashCtrl.
Once used tax rates can not be deleted or adjusted.
It is important to set up the chart of accounts. This determines which accounts are available for accounting. The generic CashCtrl chart of accounts provides a good basis that is sufficient for most purposes. If needed, this can be customized.
Accounts can be added at any time.

In the opening entries dialog the opening balances are entered. Debit and credit must be balanced, this is visible at the bottom right and is the case when Difference: 0.00 is displayed in green.
All entries must be in the same currency. For a further currency, the dialog can be called up again and further opening entries can be entered in a foreign currency.
The dialog can be reached via Accounts More Opening entries or in the Journal in the Add dropdown . To do this, the first accounting period must be selected, as the opening entries must fall within that period.
Good to know: Opening entries are only required once. The transfers in subsequent years are made automatically by CashCtrl.

If sales tax is applied, it can be defined here whether the sales tax is to be accounted for according to the received (book VAT with payment date) or agreed payment method (book VAT with invoice date). The default setting is Agreed.
Please note:
In addition to the password, a numeric key from an app is required to log in. We recommend Authy or Google Authenticator as an app. Simply download one of the apps from the Appstore or Google Play and scan the QR code generated by CashCtrl once.
Be sure to note the long code for possible recovery. In case of cell phone change or loss, the 2-FA can be restored this way.
The app generates a 6-digit token valid for a limited period of time, which is entered in the second step when logging in.
Test the PRO features free of charge and without obligation for 30 days. Before the end of the 30 days, the invoice will be sent by email without any commitment. This can be ignored if you do not want to continue with PRO. You can easily switch back to FREE (click downgrade to FREE).
No subscription trap, no hook :-)
