Frappe Books

Open-source accounting for small businesses and freelancers, built on the Frappe Framework.

Motivation

Frappe Books started as a desktop app that keeps one company in one file on one computer. This app puts the same Books interface on a Frappe site. Your team signs in from a browser on any computer or phone. Frappe controls users, roles, and permissions, and your data stays on your own server.

Key Features

  • Accounting: Double-entry ledger, chart of accounts, journal entries, and the General Ledger, Profit and Loss, Balance Sheet, and Trial Balance reports.
  • Sales and Purchases: Quotes, invoices, payments, and returns, with a print format for each document.
  • Inventory: Stock movements, shipments, receipts, batches, serial numbers, and FIFO valuation, with the Stock Ledger and Stock Balance reports.
  • Point of Sale: POS shifts, checkout, barcode scanning, pricing rules, coupons, and loyalty points.
  • Phone App: A phone layout with bottom tabs. Install it from the browser to your home screen.
  • Regional: India GST with the GSTR-1 and GSTR-2 reports, Swiss fields, and translations for more than 15 languages.

Under the Hood

  • Frappe Framework: A full-stack web application framework written in Python and JavaScript. It gives Books its database layer, user authentication, permissions, and a REST API.

  • Frappe UI: A Vue-based UI library for single-page apps on the Frappe Framework. The Books interface at /books uses its components on desktop and on phones.
