Most accounts software is designed for businesses with Profit and Loss accounts. This means there are complicated ledgers that are unnecessary for Councils, and you can't produce the reports you need to meet your statutory obligations.
Many Councils find using these packages difficult, so stick to Excel spreadsheets, but this has no audit trail and requires time to be spent on producing manual reports.
Scribe is an accounts package with full accounting support, purpose built for Town and Parish Councils, designed to make it easy to produce compliant Council accounts.
Suitable for Receipts and Payments or Income and Expenditure accounting.
The only web-accessible, cloud-based system for Town & Parish Councils. Scribe’s Accounting system works seamlessly with the Cemetery and Booking system saving time and errors.
