Finance

The money view an owner actually opens on a Monday.

Farexa Finance sits on top of the ledger and answers owner questions: what's the cash position, who owes us, what did we budget versus spend, and what are the assets worth now — without waiting for a month-end pack.

The layer owners read

The ledger keeps the books; Finance is where an owner reads them. It's the layer that turns posted entries into the handful of questions a business actually asks between month-ends: how much cash do we have, who owes us and for how long, are we over budget, and what is on the balance sheet. None of that requires a call to the accountant, because it's all drawn from the same posted data in real time.

Receivables and payables are aged, so overdue money is visible as a shape rather than a surprise — you can see what's 30, 60, or 90 days out on both sides. Budgets are set per account and read straight back as budget-versus-actual, so overspend shows up while there's still time to act on it. Bank reconciliation and the cashbook keep the cash position honest against what actually cleared, and fixed assets carry a depreciation schedule so the asset register reflects current value rather than purchase price.

Because it's the same ledger underneath, none of these views disagree with each other. The cash flow the owner reads, the aging the credit controller chases, and the statements the accountant closes are three windows onto one set of numbers — which is the whole point of running finance inside the ERP instead of exporting to a spreadsheet that's stale the moment it's saved.

Key features

What the money view shows.

AP and AR aging

See what you owe and what you're owed bucketed by age, so overdue balances on both sides are visible early.

Budgets and budget-vs-actual

Set budgets per account and read variance back against posted actuals while there's still room to react.

Cash flow and cashbook

Track money in and out and keep a running cash position rather than guessing between statements.

Bank reconciliation

Match the ledger against what actually cleared the bank, so the cash figure is one you can trust.

Fixed assets with a depreciation schedule

Register assets and run depreciation so the asset register shows current value, not the price you paid.

Owner and management dashboards

A finance dashboard that surfaces the numbers owners ask for, drawn live from the ledger.

Tax and VAT visibility

Sit tax-aware records and the VAT summary next to the money view, so tax isn't a separate month-end scramble.

Exports for board and bank packs

Send any of it to Excel, CSV, or PDF when a lender or a board wants the figures.

How it works

From posted entries to a read on the business.

01 Connect the money sources. Sales, purchases, payments, and expenses already post to the ledger; Finance reads them without any extra data entry.
02 Set budgets. Budget per account so that as actuals post, budget-versus-actual updates on its own.
03 Reconcile the bank. Match ledger movements to what cleared, keeping the cash position and cashbook honest.
04 Chase what's owed. Work AR aging to collect overdue receivables and watch AP aging so nothing supplier-side slips.
05 Read the position. Open the finance dashboard for cash, budget variance, aging, and asset value — and export a pack when someone external needs it.

FAQ

What owners and controllers ask.

How is Finance different from Accounting?

Accounting is the ledger — the chart of accounts, journals, periods, and statements. Finance is the owner-and-controller view that sits on top of it: cash flow, AP/AR aging, budgets, bank reconciliation, and fixed assets. Same numbers, read for decisions rather than for the books.

Can I see budget versus actual as the month goes?

Yes. Budgets are set per account and variance reads back against posted actuals continuously, so overspend is visible while you can still do something about it — not after the month closes.

Does it age receivables and payables?

Yes, both. AR and AP aging bucket balances by how overdue they are, so you can chase debtors and manage supplier payments before either becomes a problem.

Are fixed assets tracked with depreciation?

Yes. Assets are registered and run on a depreciation schedule, so the asset register reflects current value rather than original cost.

Can I export figures for a bank or board?

Yes. The finance views export to Excel, CSV, and PDF, so a lender or board pack comes straight from live figures rather than a re-keyed spreadsheet.
