Finance | base: PayPal and simple bookkeeping

Your customers pay open invoices directly with PayPal. Sole proprietorships and associations keep income and expenses under Art. 957 para. 2 CO.
Finance | base, the ERP for Swiss SMEs, makes collecting payments and bookkeeping simpler: your customers pay open invoices in the customer area directly with PayPal, and sole proprietorships and associations keep simple books.
PayPal in the customer area
As soon as you have set up PayPal with your own business account, your customers pay open invoices in the customer area directly with PayPal. The QR-bill remains available. The payment is posted automatically exactly once, and the invoice changes to "paid". A step-by-step guide in the sales settings accompanies you through the setup.
In the same customer area your customers accept offers, with a signature if required, and the order confirmation is created automatically. Your customer can also invite colleagues, each with their own access.
Simple bookkeeping
Under Art. 957 para. 2 CO, only income, expenses and the financial position need to be recorded by: sole proprietorships and partnerships with turnover of less than CHF 500,000 in the last financial year, and associations and foundations not required to register in the commercial register. For these you choose simple bookkeeping per company. You record income, expenses and transfers between cash and bank with category and document, and the contra entry is created automatically in the journal. You also get the cash flow report by category, the financial position on the reporting date and the annual closing.
Finance | base suggests the right bookkeeping during setup, based on the legal form and with a reason. You confirm or choose yourself.
