Upload reports
Drop a Zoho Books export in and the dashboard updates. Nothing is overwritten until the file reads cleanly.
Start with the general ledger
General Ledger
MonthlyThe backbone of the whole dashboard. Every P&L, balance sheet and cash flow figure is derived from this one file, and each number stays clickable back to the transactions behind it. Export the full financial year; re-uploading a period simply replaces it.
In Zoho Books: Reports → Accountant → General Ledger → Export as XLSX
Last upload: Detailed General Ledger-26-08-2026.xlsx · 11,253 rows · 01 Apr 2026 to 26 Aug 2026
Opening Trial Balance
Once a yearThe closing trial balance of the previous financial year. The ledger alone cannot tell us what the balance sheet opened at, so this seeds it. Needed once a year.

Invoice Details
WeeklyDrives the revenue view: billing by month, client, vertical and salesperson, plus client concentration.

Credit Note Details
WeeklyCredit notes reduce revenue in the ledger but never appear in Invoice Details, so without this file the Revenue page reads high against the P&L. One credit note applied to several invoices is exported once per invoice; it is counted once.
In Zoho Books: Reports → Sales → Credit Note Details → Export as XLSX
Recurring Retainership Fee
MonthlySplits revenue between the monthly retainer and one-off professional work — the split shown on the Revenue page and in Budget vs Actual. Two shapes are read: one row per customer per month (customer_name, amount, Month), or the hand-kept table with one column per month. Re-uploading replaces every month the file covers, so a corrected list fixes itself.
In Zoho Books: Reports → Sales → Sales by Item → Export as XLSX
Customer Payments
WeeklyDrives collections and DSO — what was billed against what actually came in.
In Zoho Books: Reports → Sales → Customer Payments → Export as XLSX
AR Aging Details
WeeklyA snapshot of what is outstanding and how old it is. Each upload is a dated snapshot, so the trend builds up over time.
