Charitas Accounting

Keep the books straight.

Keep a charity cashbook in pounds, with bank and cash accounts, separate funds and evidence beside each entry. Prepare drafts from statements and receipts for a treasurer to check.

Accounting is in development, with real-charity qualification still to complete.

Human-approved records
01

Keep the evidence

Retain original documents alongside the entries they support.

02

Respect each fund

Record general, restricted and designated funds, including donor conditions.

03

Share checked records

Export approved entries as CSV or prepare a private examiner export.

How it works

From document to record

Each entry passes through human review before approval.

  1. 01

    Prepare a draft

    Upload a PDF, image or CSV. An assistant helps prepare draft entries; the original file stays with them.

  2. 02

    Check and approve

    The treasurer checks the amount, account, fund and evidence. Approved rows cannot be edited.

  3. 03

    Reconcile independently

    An independent reviewer records a reconciliation review. Approved entries can be exported before that review is complete.

People stay in charge

Give each person a part

Preparation, approval and independent reconciliation have separate responsibilities.

01

Uploader

Uploads documents and sees their own receipts. They cannot create entries from statements.

02

Treasurer

Checks entries and approves the record.

03

Reviewer

Independently reviews the reconciliation.
