eKhata features

Digital khata software for Pakistani shops: from udhaar to profit

Parties ledger, cash book, bills, stock, expenses, outsourcing, payroll and reports: your whole shop's accounts in one app, in Urdu and English.

Parties ledger

Udhaar ledger for customers and suppliers

Every customer and supplier gets their own running khata. You always see who owes you, whom you owe, and how much, without adding up pages by hand.

  • Separate lists for what you will get and what you will give
  • Send a branded PDF statement or a payment reminder to WhatsApp in one tap
  • Every entry is dated and carries a note, so there is a clear trail if a customer disputes a balance
  • Search by name or phone, with opening balances for existing customers

Cash book

Daily cash book with cash drawer tally

Record cash in and cash out as it happens, then match the drawer against the day's books in the evening. Shortages show up the same day, while you can still find the reason.

  • Cash, bank, Easypaisa and JazzCash tracked separately
  • Sales, expenses, salary and party payments post to the cash book automatically
  • Opening balance, total received, total paid and net position for any date range
  • Export the register to Excel for your accountant

Bills and invoicing

Sales bills, purchase bills and returns

Make a bill in seconds and let eKhata do the bookkeeping behind it. One bill updates the customer's khata, the stock and the cash book together, so nothing has to be entered twice.

  • Sales bills for walk-in and credit customers, with partial payment
  • Purchase bills from suppliers that raise stock and update what you owe
  • Bill returns that put stock and balances back correctly
  • PDF invoices, thermal receipt printing on 58mm and 80mm printers, and WhatsApp sharing

Stock and inventory

Stock and inventory with average costing

Know what is on the shelf and what it really cost you. When supplier rates change, eKhata recalculates your average cost, so the profit you see is the real profit.

  • Quantities in kg, litre, piece, dozen and metre, including fractions
  • Weighted average cost, selling price and unit profit for every product
  • Low-stock alerts before a best seller runs out
  • Full movement ledger for each product: stock in, stock out and balance

Expense book

Expense book for rent, bills and daily costs

Rent, electricity, transport and tea: write each cost down once, in its category, and see where the month's money went. Profit is only real after expenses.

  • Categories for rent, utilities, transport and your own custom heads
  • Attach a receipt photo and a note to any expense
  • Each expense reaches the cash book on its own
  • Filter by date and category, and export to Excel

Outsourcing and dyeing

Outsourcing and dyeing workflow for fabric units

For fabric and garment businesses that send goods out for dyeing or processing. Follow the stock from raw cloth, through the vendor, to finished goods, and see what the work really cost.

  • Raw purchases kept apart from finished stock
  • Send goods to a process vendor and receive them back as finished stock
  • Shrinkage and loss recorded against each batch
  • Vendor processing charges added to the cost of the finished goods

Staff and payroll

Staff attendance, advances and monthly salary

Mark attendance each day, note advances as they are given, and get the month's salary worked out for you. Every payment also shows in the cash book.

  • Daily attendance for every employee
  • Advances recorded and deducted from the month's salary
  • Salary slip for each employee that you can share
  • A ledger for each employee showing everything paid so far

Reports

Profit and loss, balance sheet and business reports

See your real profit, not just your sales. The reports are built from the entries you already make, so there is no separate accounting step at month end.

  • Trading account, Profit & Loss statement, Balance Sheet and Trial Balance
  • Net operating profit, gross revenue and total expenses for any date range
  • Cash and bank balance next to what customers owe you
  • Print to PDF or export to Excel for your accountant
