Accounts payable

The supplier invoice, with its creditable VAT (IVA) where it belongs.

You record the invoice once and Containn writes its journal entry: the expense or inventory, the creditable VAT and what’s owed to the supplier. Payments, full or partial, get their own.

How it works

1

Enter the invoice

Supplier, description, subtotal, creditable VAT and total.

2

The journal entry writes itself

It debits the expense or inventory, debits the creditable VAT and credits accounts payable.

3

Record the payment

Full or partial, with its own journal entry.

4

See what’s outstanding

Who you owe and how much, in one report.

What’s included

  • Invoice entry with supplier, description, subtotal, creditable VAT and total.
  • Automatic journal entry on recording: debits the expense or inventory, debits the creditable VAT and credits accounts payable.
  • Payment recording, full or partial, each with its own journal entry.
  • Report of what’s outstanding.

The limit

It doesn’t read the supplier’s XML yet: the invoice is entered by hand. Automatic reading of incoming e-invoices is on the way.

Does Containn read the supplier’s XML?

Not yet: the invoice is entered by hand. Automatic reading of incoming e-invoices is on the roadmap.

Start with yesterday.

If your hotel already signs off on its night audit, Containn can post yesterday today. The chart of accounts is set up in one step, the transaction code mapping is done once, and from then on every signed-off day becomes a journal entry.
