Databases have never been the correct solution for Bookkeeping and Accounting. It's about technical issue that most without programming background have mis-understood for decades.

Welcome to a New Age in Small Business Accounting
May the Age of Balance Sheet Understanding now Commence!!
As a CPA, you know the true value of a Balance Sheet.
It's everything in Small Business Accounting.
--------------------------------------
Without it, the books are worthless, although most don't realize that.
With it, and suspended accounts in the mix, the books are still really worthless.
It is the reason you will NOT touch the books of others without charging very hefty fees, if at all.
The Intuit Balance Sheet process can be nearly impossible to reconcile at times. Even for Pros.

The Balance Sheet has been the Small Business Person's Digital Nemesis since the Digital Age took flight. No one wanted to do Accounting the old fashioned way, yet no one figured out how to do it in spreadsheets in order to exclude databases from Digital Accounting? Oy vey. That created an opacity that was impossible to see thru clearly for sure. Until now anyway...

We take a slightly different approach to the Balance Sheet.
There are no "sub reports" related to equity or Net Income. All of those values are represented directly on the Incremental Portion of the Balance Sheet for Transparency.
Given this data is all created from the General Ledger, which is created from raw data in Journals with only a change in perspective, nothing can be lost.
This Report has an on/off button. As long as it is "on", changes in a Journal are reflected here immediately.
Stepping through a Balance Sheet with an imbalance one day at a time to find errors is now child's play.

The Balance Sheet is fed By the General Ledger which is fed by Journals . It's almost that simple with only a straight forward Transaction Aggregator also in the flow.

Our Journals use positive and negative values. That removes the unnecessary dogma for novice and intermediate users. This can be converted into a version with debits and credits on the input side in about 20 minutes. We'll likely have a standard release on that later, but for now, positive and negative values are the place to be.

Of course, there is a General Journal too. This is a double entry Journal. The General Ledger queries this directly at the same time it queries the Transaction Generator for the one line journal entries. This is positive and negative values. No need to worry about sign errors. They are picked up by the Balance Sheet easily and obviously.

The Transaction Aggregator aggregates one line journal entries. It also creates the properly signed value for other half of the journal entry.

The General Ledger has no transactions in it. It is just a view of transaction aggregator data joined with the General Journal. The transaction Aggregator data is just a view of Journal data. Thus, there is no place for errors to hide.

The General Ledger has a feature which allows the Pros to turn off debits and credits to see what active affects it has on the system. (hint -- none). It only disables a ledger integrity cross check report.

An Isolated Bookkeeping Module - We believe the Bookkeeping Module for Tax Accounting for a Small Business should be digitally separate from ALL OTHER SYSTEMS. There is zero benefit in connecting it with any other systems. Thus a Switch to ZAP's Bookkeeping Module should not interrupt any other systems and it can be run in parallel until unsure users are sure of what we offer. That's why it's a great place to start.
