When accounting was first introduced, daybooks were used as simple listing devices to keep the detail in the daybook rather than in the ledgers. A very simple and convenient approach. When Microsoft Excel can do the posting of the double entry for you – why choose anything else?

Receipts & Payments (Single‑Entry Cash Record)

A simple, structured way to record money received and money paid out, with full bank reconciliation. Ideal for sole traders, clubs, associations, and charities preparing Receipts & Payments Accounts.

For companies, it can only be used as the cash‑movement book of prime entry, provided the year‑end information is incorporated into full double‑entry ledgers to meet Companies Act requirements. It offers a far more organised and reconciled cash record than the typical bank‑transaction CSV many businesses rely on.

Where it reduces year‑end work, the cost of the software may be offset against your statutory accounts fee (subject to availability).
