Accounting for electricians

This is not a replacement for your accountant. It is the part that feeds them: the invoices, the expenses and the receipts, kept tidy as you go instead of in a carrier bag in the van. SparkCerts handles the day-to-day money side of an electrical business so the year-end is a download, not a panic.

Money in

• Proper UK invoices with VAT, your bank details and payment terms
• Pay-online links by card, and overdue invoices chased by text automatically
• Built from the quote, so nothing is retyped

Money out

• Snap a receipt on site, with supplier, category and VAT
• Materials and expenses tracked against the job
• Profit per job, and a money in, money out, profit figure for the month

Year-end is a download

One click exports your invoices and expenses as CSV, ready for your accountant or to import into Xero or QuickBooks. No copying figures off paper, no reconciling three apps. The records you make running the jobs are the records the books need, which is the whole point of doing the money in the same place as the work.
