Print Checks
You can print your checks directly from our software. Customize your check forms using our check form editer. Open your payable accounts, select the items to pay and as soon as you save the check, it will print it for you.
Bank Reconciliation
Reconcile your bank accounts every month to know how much money you have available. Quick, simple, easy. Our software allows you to have a line by line visual of every check/deposit in our system so that you can check-off all of the ones that have been cleared through your bank. It makes reconciliation a breeze!
Batch Deposits
Using our Deposit Register, you can select as many "unbatched" deposits as you would like to batch together and send to a bank account. That way, when you take in a deposit envelope with several checks as well as cash, our system will match the exact number that your bank shows as the deposit amount. However you do your banking, our system will work for you!
Payroll Management
Whether you write your own checks to your employees or you write one lump sum to a Payroll Company, we've got you covered.

Car Dealer Based Chart of Accounts
Our customizable Chart of Accounts starts with all of the accounts that you as a Car Dealer need. You can add your own and even edit or remove any account that is not used by the system, however, the accounts that come with the program are specifically designed with you in mind.
Accounting Reports
We have a wide spectrum of Accounting Reports to show you exactly what you need to know. Balance Sheets, Income Statements, Receivables and Payables. Drill-down capabilities on each report let you see all of the details if a summary is just not enough.
Inventory Write-Down
We've got tools for you to write-down the value of your inventory every year. You have the option of manually inputting the numbers or having the system calculate them for you. It decreases the value of the vehicle so that when you do sell it, your numbers will show profit based on the depreciation of the vehicle, not it's original value.
Invoicing Tools
Use our Purchases and Invoices system to create invoices for Customers, Vendors, Finance Companies and Employees. Offset the payable or receivable to any account (revenue, expense, equity, anything!), add as many lines as you would like and change the offset account and attached vehicle for each line.
Reconditioning Capitalization
Our software automates the process of Reconditioning Capitalization. While your vehicle is unsold, all reconditioning goes into the system as an asset. As soon as your vehicle is sold, those assets are transferred to reconditioning expense accounts. Fully automated with no accounting headaches at the end of the year.
Bank Ledger
Get a detailed listing of deposits and payments with a running balance. The Bank Ledger shows you who you paid, what type of payment it was and to which account the payment was offset (liability? expense?). No more confusion about how much is in your bank account or where it all went.
