01 · The books
Open your books from a template

- Export the trial balance as a spreadsheet file
Finance and books
Your books, beside the business they describe
A chart of accounts from a template, journals that are reversed and never undone, periods you close, and a trial balance you export, with approvals for what a bookkeeper prepares.
02 · Journals
Posted is posted
Write journals by hand, and correct them with a reversal: a posted journal is never undone, so the trail stays whole.
- Periods closed when the month is done
03 · Approvals
A bookkeeper prepares, an owner approves
Journals a bookkeeper prepares wait for an owner's approval before they post. A bookkeeper's role gives finance and nothing else.
04 · Bookings and money
Every booking's money, accounted for
Each reservation keeps its own ledger and folio, payouts arrive through your Stripe account, and Holuway's statement lists every platform fee it took.
Not in Holuway yet
Said plainly, so you can plan around it.
- Stays and Spaces revenue posted into the books automatically: each booking's money stays in its own ledger, and journals are written by hand.
- Owner statements for vacation rentals you manage for someone else.
