About Bigcapital
Bigcapital is an open source accounting application for bookkeeping, invoicing, expenses and financial reporting. It can be self-hosted, and a cloud version is planned.
What it does
Bigcapital records sales and purchases and produces the reports owners and accountants need. Teams can send customisable invoices, track bills and expenses, and manage accounts payable and receivable. Bank feeds bring transactions in for reconciliation, and inventory tracking supports businesses that sell goods. Multi-currency accounts and multiple branches are supported, with role based access for team members.
Key features
- Create customizable sales invoices
- Track bills, expenses and payables
- Reconcile bank transactions with bank feeds
- Track inventory and multi-currency accounts
- Run financial reports and a general ledger
Who it's for
Bigcapital suits small businesses, freelancers, bookkeepers and accountants who want open source accounting software. Teams that prefer to host their own data will find the self-hosted route useful. It is also a good base for developers who want to build on an open accounting core.
Pricing and good to know
The project is open source under the AGPL-3.0 licence and can be deployed with Docker. A hosted cloud version is listed as coming soon. Users who run a modified copy as a network service should check the AGPL terms, and the project has community channels on Discord and GitHub.
