Bigcapital
Keep invoices, bills, banking, inventory, and financial reports in one system.
What it helps with
Bigcapital is accounting software aimed at invoices, bills, expenses, banking, inventory, double-entry records, and financial statements. A small company could use it to centralize day-to-day bookkeeping and give finance staff a clearer operating ledger. It is better treated as accounting software than merely invoicing, so the source category understates its purpose. Before adoption, a business must validate local tax, currency, reporting, audit, import/export, and accountant access requirements. Self-hosting also makes the business responsible for availability, backups, and security.
Best fit
Best for SMBs with bookkeeping knowledge and technical support; not for anyone assuming software replaces an accountant or guarantees statutory compliance.
Setup reality
Docker/simple self-host; an official Docker/Compose path exists, but includes application services and a database that require secure production configuration.
License context
Copyleft licenseBusiness use is allowed. Sharing duties depend on the specific license and how modified software is distributed or offered.AGPL-3.0; internal use is allowed; modified network deployments can trigger source-offer obligations.
