The main menu on the left groups the screens by task. Click a group to open its first page and show its sub-pages. Screens that depend on a period show a period selector at the top of the page.
The main menu
| Group | Screen | What it’s for |
|---|---|---|
| Dashboard | Overview: entries to approve, result, VAT, largest expenses and accounting alerts for the period | |
| Entries | Entries | Review, approve and correct entries. See Approve the AI’s proposals |
| Import | Import bank statements and transactions. See Import a camt.053 statement | |
| Payroll | Salaries received from ark.admin. The entry appears once ark.admin has sent payslips | |
| Documents | Documents | Invoices, receipts and other supporting documents. See Receive invoices and receipts |
| Duplicates | Identical files removed automatically, and doubtful cases for you to decide | |
| Accounting | Financial statements | Balance sheet, Income statement and Trial balance, with the items to check. See Check a period |
| Chart of accounts | Accounts, bank accounts and import sources. See Prepare your chart of accounts | |
| VAT | Estimate, period comparison and deadlines. See Follow the VAT estimate | |
| Management | Analytics | Financial, Profit, Vendors and Clients tabs |
| Projects | Documents and entries grouped by project reference. Projects module | |
| Checks and closing | Audit | Period checks and accounting alerts. See Check a period |
| Closing | Accruals, closing and locking periods. See Close and lock a period | |
| My accountant | Requests, annotations and documents from your accountant, when one is connected |
Import, Closing and My accountant only appear for roles that are allowed to use them, by default administrators. A group with a single page doesn’t open a sub-menu.
The account menu
At the bottom of the main menu, click your name to open the account menu:
- Settings: profile, company, VAT, users, modules and other settings;
- Getting started: the setup guide, for administrators. See Getting started;
- Subscription: plan, payments and invoices, for administrators;
- Appearance: the display theme;
- Help, Service status and Sign out.
Optional modules
Some entries only appear when their module is on. An administrator turns modules on under Settings, Modules:
- Projects: the Projects screen;
- Analytics: departments, salaries per department and analytic codes. See Create departments;
- Advanced tools: CK1 diagnostics, OCR comparison, maintenance, AI model catalogue and per-task routing.
Turning a module off keeps its data. If you open the page of a module that is off, it shows Module not enabled.
