# Zentrix Cloud Accounting: Daily Takings and Reconciliation

> Zentrix Cloud Accounting (Beta) tracks daily takings, reconciles Zenso payments, summarizes tax, and records expenses. All data flows automatically from Sales and Bookings.

Zentrix Cloud Accounting (Beta) gives you a connected view of your business finances. Because every module shares the same data, a sale at the point of sale or a completed booking automatically updates your takings, stock, and accounting records in one place. This page introduces what you can do in Accounting and how to move on to detailed reporting.

<Note>
  Accounting is currently in Beta. Some labels and layouts may change as the module evolves. Check the in-app UI for the latest options.

## What you can do in Accounting

* **Daily takings** — See a running summary of income from Sales and Bookings for each branch and across all branches.
* **Payment reconciliation** — Match transactions against Zenso payments (card, QR, and pay-by-bank) so your settled amounts line up with your records.
* **Tax summaries** — Review tax collected and tax owed based on activity recorded in the system.
* **Expense records** — Log and categorize business expenses to keep your profit and loss current.

## How data flows into Accounting

Zentrix Cloud is one connected admin. When a team member processes a sale, completes a service booking, or receives a refund, the transaction details feed directly into Accounting. You do not need to re-enter sales data manually. If you operate multiple branches, each branch records its own takings and expenses, and consolidated reports roll everything up for the whole business.
