Chart of Accounts

The Chart of Accounts is an organized list of all the financial accounts in in your business. It serves as the backbone of your bookkeeping, helping you stay categorize and track financial transactions in a structured way.


Where Can I See My Chart of Accounts?

Go to the “Accounting Tab” in the side bar or navigate to https://use.kick.co/accounting and click on Chart of Accounts in the list.


How is the Chart of Accounts different from Categories?

In Kick, the Chart of Accounts serves as the foundation for organizing financial data, while Categories are how transactions are classified within that structure.

Here are some key differences:

  1. The Chart of Accounts is a high-level financial structure that organizes all of your business’s financial accounts (assets, liabilities, equity, income, and expenses).

  2. Categories are used to classify individual transactions (such as office supplies, meals, or advertising expenses).

Every transaction in Kick is assigned to a Category, which then maps to the correct Account in the Chart of Accounts.
