ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE FOR SMES

ElaraTeq Libra Your books, in balance.

The software for keeping your business accounts. On your own, or with us.

Libra is the accounting software we built in-house: double entry on the Swiss SME chart of accounts or simplified bookkeeping, VAT, receivables and payables, closing and annual report. Every business has its own separate workspace: keep the books yourself, or hand them to us.

THE SOFTWARE

More than a spreadsheet, without the weight of an ERP

Receipts in a shoebox, invoices scattered across emails, a spreadsheet only its author understands: for many small businesses bookkeeping is a chore that keeps getting postponed. Libra makes it tidy, readable and always up to date.

Use it on your own, entering income, expenses and invoices yourself, or send us the documents and let us post them. Either way, at the end of each period you have clear statements, ready for your trustee, your bank or the tax authorities.

  • Self-service or managed by us: your choice, and you can switch
  • Every entry has its voucher attached
  • Statements you can read without being an accountant

WHAT IS INCLUDED

Everything an SME needs

Double or simplified

Double entry on the Swiss SME chart of accounts, or simplified bookkeeping with income, expenses and a statement of net worth (art. 957 para. 2 CO) for sole proprietorships and partnerships with a turnover below CHF 500,000.

VAT without surprises

Effective method or net tax rates, on agreed or received consideration, quarterly or half-yearly. The VAT statement comes straight from the entries.

Receivables and QR invoices

Your customer invoices with the Swiss QR-bill, partial payments included, and an always up-to-date list of who still has to pay.

Payables and due dates

Supplier invoices are posted with their due date: you always know what is to be paid and when.

Closing and annual report

Year-end closing, balances carried forward and a complete annual report: cover, balance sheet, income statement, trial balance and approval page.

Vouchers on file

Every document is stored digitally with its SHA-256 fingerprint and kept for the ten years required by law.

HOW IT WORKS

Four steps to tidy books

  1. The books are opened

    Legal form, financial year, VAT method, chart of accounts and opening balances: we set up your Libra workspace together.

  2. Documents come in

    Invoices, receipts and bank statements as PDFs or photos: upload them yourself, or send them to us.

  3. Entries are posted

    By you or by us: entries are booked, payments matched to invoices, and receivables, payables and VAT stay up to date.

  4. The figures come out

    A VAT statement every period, closing at year end and a PDF annual report with your logo and colours.

STATEMENTS

RIGOUR

Books you can rely on

Nothing is erased
A posted entry is never edited: it is reversed and rewritten. There is always a trace of what happened and when.
Who did what
Every operation is written to an audit log, with author and date.
Your data stays yours
Libra is multi-tenant: each business has its own separate books. Accounts, documents and numbering never mix with anyone else's, and everyone sees only their own.
Accurate to the cent
Amounts are computed in whole cents: no rounding that makes five cents vanish at year end.
