Accounting & Finance
A real double-entry ledger for the whole business.
Hitaji ERP’s accounting module is the financial backbone that every other module posts into. It manages a full chart of accounts, records journal entries, handles invoicing and bill payment, tracks budgets, and produces the financial statements that management, auditors, and regulators require. Because payroll, SACCO, expenses, and inventory all use the same ledger, every financial event in the business is captured once and reflected everywhere.

Manage your chart of accounts
Build and maintain a hierarchical chart of accounts covering assets, liabilities, equity, income, and expenses. Account codes, types, and parent groupings are all configurable so the ledger structure matches the way your finance team and your auditors think about the business.
Post and review journal entries
Manual journals, system-generated payroll journals, inter-business transfers, and adjusting entries all live in the same journal register. Each entry is balanced by construction — the system rejects unbalanced postings — and every line records the account, debit or credit, amount, and the source or reference.
Raise invoices and track receivables
Create invoices for customers, track their due dates, and record payments against them. Outstanding receivables are visible in an ageing report so collections effort is focused on what is overdue, not spread evenly across a long list.
Capture bills and manage payables
Record supplier bills as they arrive, match them against purchase orders where applicable, and track the amounts owed. The payables register shows what is due and when, so cash flow planning is based on real obligations rather than estimates.
Record payments and receipts
Log outgoing payments and incoming receipts against the invoices and bills they settle. Part payments, advance payments, and write-offs are all handled, and the outstanding balance on each document updates immediately.
Set and monitor budgets
Define budgets by account or cost centre for a financial period, then monitor actual spend against budget in a comparison report. Over-budget lines are highlighted so management can act before the period closes, not after the variance report arrives.
Produce financial statements
Generate a Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow statement for any period with one click. The figures are always current because every transaction in the system posts to the ledger in real time — there is no month-end closing process required before the statements are reliable.
