When the work is delivered, not when the invoice is paid. That is why the revenue line and the cash line move differently, and why both are shown.

No. Post an adjusting journal in the open period instead — that is what an auditor expects to see, and it leaves the original figures intact.

It stays in the ledger at zero with a reason attached, so the numbering never has a gap. The audit log keeps who voided it and when.

Yes. It is allocated across them oldest first by default, and you can change the allocation before it is posted.

The balance sits as a credit against the customer and is offered against the next invoice. It is never quietly written off.

Invoices are held in the currency they were raised in and converted at the rate on the date of the transaction. The difference on settlement is posted to exchange gains and losses.

Because retained earnings is derived, not typed. Every figure comes from one place, and the build asserts twenty accounting identities before it will produce a page.

Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js and ApexCharts — all MIT. The typeface is Chivo, under the SIL Open Font Licence. The icons are drawn in-house. There is nothing here you have to buy a licence for.

Yes. Open any page by double-clicking it. Nothing is fetched at runtime and no path is absolute.
