The accounting dashboard: booking report, VAT liability and P&L in one place

The accounting dashboard: booking report, VAT liability and P&L in one place

If you want a quick overview of your company's current financial situation, you usually have to open several views one after another. 1Tool instead bundles the most important of this information into a single accounting dashboard that loads and displays three data sources together for the selected period.

Three data sources, one period

The accounting dashboard simultaneously loads a custom booking report, the VAT liability breakdown and the profit and loss statement for the selected period. All three are then displayed together on a single page. This gives you an overall picture at a glance that covers ongoing bookings as well as the tax situation and the financial result – without having to switch between different areas of the software.

Fewer clicks, faster overview

Switching between individual sub-views may not take much time on its own, but it adds up when repeated regularly. With the combined dashboard you skip these switches, because the booking report, VAT liability and P&L are already visible side by side. This is particularly useful for people who regularly need an up-to-date picture but don't want to dig into every detail – for example management, who want a quick status update between other appointments.

A starting point for deeper analysis

The dashboard does not replace the individual detail views; it serves as a shared starting point. If you notice something unusual in one of the three figures, you can jump from there straight into the relevant detail view to examine the cause more closely. In this way, the dashboard combines a quick overall view with the option to dig deeper when needed.
