Multi-branch
Multi-branch accounting software that shows each branch’s profitability from one ledger
Opening a second branch raises a simple question most software cannot answer: which branch is making money? In Barah Plus the branch is a dimension on every document and entry, so you get an income statement per branch and consolidated for the company, a warehouse per branch, and permissions that keep a branch employee inside their branch, all under one VAT number and one return.
The branch everywhere the accountant needs it
Branch dimension on documents
Invoices, receipts, expenses, supplier bills and salaries all carry their branch, and the branch travels with the entry into the general ledger.
Reports by branch
Filter the income statement, trial balance, general ledger and sales report by branch, or view them consolidated; the numbers balance either way.
A warehouse per branch
Each branch sells from and receives into its own warehouse, transfers between branches are documented with a reference, and every item’s balance is known per branch.
Branch permissions
The branch manager sees only their branch, the head-office accountant sees everything, and employee requests are routed by branch.
Attendance by branch location
A geofence per branch accepts check-ins only from inside it, so you know who was present at which branch.
Shared customers and suppliers
The same customer buys from any branch with one statement, while every invoice records which branch sold it.
Branches without multiple programs or consolidation spreadsheets
The common solution for branches is a copy of the program in each branch and a monthly consolidation spreadsheet at head office. The result: late numbers, differences between copies, and a VAT return assembled by hand from several sources.
In one cloud system every branch invoice comes from the same ledger, with one sequence or a sequence per branch, the company-wide VAT report builds itself, and the finance manager sees each branch’s profitability every morning without waiting for anyone.
Frequently asked questions
Does Barah Plus support more than one branch?
- Yes. Branches are defined in company settings, every document and entry carries its branch, and reports filter by branch or show consolidated figures.
Does each branch need its own VAT number?
- No. Branches are part of the same company and share its VAT number and return. If each entity has its own VAT number, multi-company is the right fit.
Can a branch employee be restricted to their branch’s data?
- Yes. Permissions are granted at branch level, so a branch employee cannot see another branch’s invoices or stock.
Does payroll cost show per branch?
- Yes. Each employee is linked to a branch, so their salary posts to that branch and payroll cost appears on the branch’s income statement.
