Cost centres

What it does for your business

Set up cost centres for head office, each branch, project or department, in a tree. Name the cost centre on journal lines, expenses, sales, purchases and returns, give an expense category its own, and payroll is shared over your employees' cost centres by their pay. See the profit and loss or the trial balance of any period split by cost centre, one centre and the ones under it, with columns that always add up to the total.

  1. Profit and loss by cost centre

  2. A tree of branches, projects and departments

  3. Defaults by category and payroll by employee

  4. Columns that add up to the total
