Key Capabilities

What Makes ZYNO Books the Best Accounting Software in Kenya

eTIMS e-invoicing

eTIMS E-Invoicing

Generate invoices in the eTIMS format, validate them and transmit them to KRA. Each invoice carries a timestamp, customer PIN and tax breakdown, with credit notes and invoice cancellations recorded against the original document.

VAT management

VAT Management

Apply 16% VAT, zero-rated and exempt classifications at line-item level. Input and output VAT are tracked separately and compiled into a VAT report for return preparation, with withholding tax handled alongside.

Invoicing and billing

Invoicing & Billing

Create quotations, proforma and tax invoices from customisable templates with your logo, terms and KES or foreign-currency pricing. Set up recurring invoices, automated payment reminders and partial payments, and share documents by email or link.

M-Pesa and bank reconciliation

M-Pesa & Bank Reconciliation

Import M-Pesa, Airtel Money and bank statements, or sync Kenyan bank feeds. Transactions are auto-matched to invoices, bills and expenses using rules you define, with a clear list of unmatched items to review.

Accounting and general ledger

Accounting & General Ledger

Double-entry accounting with a flexible chart of accounts, journal and voucher entries, a general ledger and trial balance. Multi-entity, multi-branch and multi-currency support lets you keep separate books per location with consolidated views.

Sales and purchase management

Sales & Purchase Management

Manage the full sales cycle from quote to sales order to invoice to payment, and the purchase cycle from purchase order to supplier bill to payment. Configurable approval workflows and delivery tracking sit on both sides, and built-in POS capability serves retail counters.

Inventory management

Inventory Management

Maintain an item master with stock levels, unit costs and valuation. Multi-location stock movements and reorder alerts are linked directly to sales, purchases and the ledger, so cost of goods sold updates with every transaction.

Expense and project tracking

Expense & Project Tracking

Record and categorise business expenses with receipts attached. Assign costs and billing to projects or clients to track budgets, actual spend and profitability per job.

Financial reporting

Financial Reporting

Standard statements include profit and loss, balance sheet, trial balance, general ledger and VAT reporting. More than forty operational reports (sales, ageing, cash flow, project analysis) can be filtered by branch, customer, item or period and exported.

Audit trail and document management

Audit Trail & Document Management

Every create, edit and delete is logged with user and timestamp in a tamper-proof history. Receipts, contracts and approvals are stored centrally in the cloud and linked to the transactions they support, with role-based permissions and multi-factor authentication.

Business Benefits of ZYNO Books in Kenya

ZYNO Books delivers more than transaction recording. It strengthens regulatory compliance, improves cash flow, and gives management a reliable, real-time view of the organisation's financial position.

Assured Compliance

Tax obligations are met as transactions occur. VAT and eTIMS records remain current and accessible, which reduces the risk of penalties, late filings and adverse audit findings.

Faster Collections

Professional invoicing, scheduled reminders and convenient M-Pesa and bank payment options shorten the billing cycle. Receivables are settled sooner and cash flow becomes more predictable.

Greater Efficiency

Reconciliation, recurring invoicing and VAT summaries are automated. Finance teams devote less time to manual entry and more time to analysis and planning.
