Financial reports

Financial reports, live: are you profitable, do you have cash?

Balance sheet, income statement and cash flow for any period you pick. They are built from the posted entries, so you read numbers, not accountant-speak.

  • Pick a period and a comparison
  • Every figure traces to the entries
  • Excel, PDF or CSV

A short demo: in "Accounting reports" you pick a year, a period and a comparison; the income statement builds line by line and shows the profit for the period; you switch to the balance sheet, where assets equal liabilities; then the cash flow with receipts, payments and net; finally you download the report as Excel, PDF or CSV. The data is sample data.

No accounting jargon

The three reports you actually read

Each answers one question. The rest is for your accountant.

Income statementIncome statement = are you profitable

Profit or loss for the period

What you sold, what you spent on people, services and materials, and what is left.

Balance sheetBalance sheet = what you own and owe

A snapshot of the company at a date

On one side: cash, receivables, assets. On the other: equity and liabilities. The two sides must match.

Cash flowCash flow = where the money goes

Receipts and payments

Profitable on paper but no cash in the bank? This shows why: what really came in and went out.

  • Trial balance
  • General ledger
  • Receivables
  • Payables
  • Journal

The same section also has a trial balance, a general ledger, receivables and payables by due date, and a journal of entries.

Who does what

You read, the accountant posts

The reports are only as current as the posted entries behind them.

Built from the entries

The report is calculated from posted entries, not typed in by hand.

Read-only

As the owner you view and download the reports. Posting stays with the accountant.

The file matches the screen

Downloading re-runs the report with the same settings, so the file never disagrees with the books.

Warnings, not silence

If something is off, such as an unbalanced balance sheet or an unmapped account, the report shows a note.

FAQ

Financial reports: frequently asked questions

What does "live" mean?
Reports are calculated the moment you open them, from entries that are already posted. A new transaction shows up as soon as it is posted. A document that is not yet posted is not in the figures.
What are the "Statutory (NAS)" and "Management" views?
"Statutory (NAS)" follows the Bulgarian national accounting standards layout, with a Full, Small or Micro form. "Management" is the simpler layout for your own analysis.
Can I compare with last year?
Yes. In the income statement and cash flow you compare with the same period of the previous year. In the balance sheet you can also compare with the end of the previous year. The comparison shows up when the system has data for that period.
How do I download a report?
Every report has Excel, PDF and CSV buttons. The downloaded file uses the same period and settings as the screen.
How do I check where a figure comes from?
Account lines have an "Open in the general ledger" link that shows the postings on that account. The link only appears if you have access to the general ledger.
Does this replace the annual financial statements?
No. These are the running reports during the year. The annual statements are prepared in the annual closing.

Next step: annual closing

At year-end these reports become the annual financial statements. See how FreeMe prepares them. And if the numbers read like Greek, ask FreeMe AI.
