LocalBooks v0.13.0: local-first, double-entry accounting.

What's new

  • Every report is in the Reports menu. The detail reports (P&L Detail, Balance Sheet Detail,
    A/R and A/P Aging Detail, Open Invoices, Unpaid Bills, customer and vendor balances, purchases,
    check and deposit detail, the journal, adjusting entries and more) and the list reports (phone and
    contact lists, Item and Account Listings) now have menu entries, not only the Report Center. A
    List submenu gathers the list reports, and Memorized Reports opens Process Multiple
    Reports.

  • Lists › Vehicle List, Vendors › Sales Tax › Pay Sales Tax… and Help › Check for Updates… open
    those screens directly.

  • More form shortcuts. On an open form, Ctrl+N starts a new one, Ctrl+P prints it, and
    Page Up / Page Down open the previous and next, as the toolbar buttons do.

  • Receive Payments takes early-payment discounts. An invoice on terms such as 2% 10 Net 30
    that is paid in full by the discount's last day can now take its discount right on Receive
    Payments, in a new Discount column you can change or clear. Choose the account it goes to
    (an income account such as Sales Discounts) in Preferences › Payments, and tick Take
    customers' early-payment discounts automatically
    to have it filled in. The payment and the
    discount post together and close the invoice; voiding the payment reverses both. This matches
    what Pay Bills already does for vendor discounts.

  • A customer's or vendor's transactions add up correctly. The panel below the Customers and
    Vendors lists used to add invoices and payments into one total, which meant nothing. Choose one
    type, such as Invoices, to see its total; with All types the panel counts the transactions.

  • The "Saved customer" note goes away when you pick or open another customer or vendor, instead
    of staying above the list.

  • A damaged company file no longer closes LocalBooks while unlocking. If the part of the file
    that holds one password's copy of the encryption key is damaged, LocalBooks now says so instead of
    quitting, and other users' passwords and the recovery key still open the file.
