Operational DashboardThese figures are an operating view, not your books. Sales are counted on the day the order was placed and costs are what you've told us they are. Nothing here posts to your books or appears on a financial statement. The Accounting Dashboard answers the other question, on settlement dates, and the two will not agree.

Total earningsOrders from Shopify, Amazon and Etsy, each counted on the day it was placed, plus any earnings you enter below. Refunds are listed per day in Day by day. Read from the stores, not from your books. $19,296.63 $17,456.63 sold · $1,840.00 entered
160 orders · $109.10 average
+2.1% vs the 31 days before
Product costWhat the products sold on these days cost you. Shopify uses each product's Cost per item. Amazon and Etsy keep no cost, so the product with the same SKU in Products & Services is used, and Shopify falls back to it too. A sale with no cost found counts as unknown, never free, and the margin is worked out only on sales whose cost is known. $5,305.00 67.5% gross margin

    Customize dashboard

    Tick what this book shows, and drag to put it in your order. The period controls and the title stay where they are.

    A card that is off is hidden here only — nothing about your books changes, and every figure stays where it came from.

    What this connection feeds

    Switch off anything you count somewhere else, and name the category each one lands in. This only changes what this page shows; it never stops the sync and never touches your books.

    Import a book file

    Import it as a new business, or replace an existing one with a returned copy. Its current books are saved first, so it is undoable.

    Restore points

    A saved copy of your books you can go back to. Take one before an import, a merge, or anything else that changes a lot of records at once.

    Split this transaction

    Slice one transaction into multiple categorized lines: e.g. a $400 Costco run becomes $250 office supplies + $150 personal groceries. Just type the amounts. Each line goes the same direction as the original, so an expense stays an expense. Use a minus only for a line that runs the other way, like a fee inside a deposit. Each split shows up as its own line in your P&L.

    • Documents folder (W-9s, receipts, anything you've dropped in)
    • A README the CPA can read to know what each file is

    You'll choose where to save the ZIP when you click Build. A copy is also kept with your backups.

    What you use

    Turn parts of Neo-Capital on and off. Anything you switch off leaves the sidebar, the menus, and every other place the app offers it: dashboards, the Report Center, exports, the cleanup checklist. Your records and reports are never touched, a figure with a real balance behind it still shows, and the pages stay reachable from Search. Turn it back on here whenever.

    Setup switched these on from your industry. Turn off anything you do not do.

    Welcome to Neo-Capital

    First, who are you? Your name goes on the invoices, 1099s and reports you send out.

    What are these books for?

    What kind of business is it?

    This is the big one. It decides your categorization rules, your Schedule C activity code, and which tools we turn on. Pick the closest match; everything stays editable later.

    What do you sell?

    We have answered these from your industry. Change any that don't fit. Everything here is reversible from What you use later.

    How do you get paid, and how do you pay?

    This decides whether your books carry receivables, payables, or neither.

    What else do you track?

    Each of these adds a section to the program. Anything you turn off you can turn back on any time.

    How is your business structured?

    This decides which return your books are built around, and whether you owe self-employment tax. Not sure? Most solo owners are a sole proprietorship.

    Business details

    These appear on your invoices, statements and tax forms.

    Fiscal year & accounting method

    Which month your financial year begins, usually January, and usually the same as your income-tax year. You'll pick the date your books start in this program on the next step.

    This drives your tax figures. Your management reports can be read either way from a toggle on each report.

    When do your books start?

    The date this program starts from, not the shape of your fiscal year, which you set on the previous step. You'll enter opening balances as of this date.

    Branding & look

    Your logo and accent color appear on invoices, statements and PDF reports. The theme and chart style are how the program looks to you.

    Logo PNG, JPG, GIF, or WebP, up to 5 MB.
    Light or dark, and how charts are drawn. Both can be changed any time from the gear menu in the bottom-left.

    Here's how we'll set your books up. Anything here is changeable later in Business settings.

    Make recurring

    Tracks this charge as it repeats: each new one is matched to it when it lands, and you are told if it changes price or stops. Nothing is posted, and this transaction is not categorised by it.

    The charge
    Subscription: software, memberships. Other recurring charge: ads, rent, utilities. Both are recurring expenses under Recurring → Expenses; the Subscriptions tab shows subscriptions, and the others too when you include them there. Not an A/P bill; nothing is owed or posted.

    New payment term

    When the bill or invoice falls due, and any early-pay discount. Manage them all from the Lists button on Customers or Vendors.
