About Bigcapital

Bigcapital is open-source accounting software that automates business financial processes in one workspace. It handles sales and purchase invoicing, expenses, inventory, and multi-currency transactions, and produces financial reports such as balance sheets, profit and loss, and cash flow statements. Teams can invite accountants with role-based permissions and track branches and warehouses in a consolidated ledger. Self-hosting with Docker is free under AGPL-3.0, while a managed cloud version is available for organizations that prefer not to run infrastructure.
