Company Settings

Overview

Top-level business info — legal name, trading name, address, tax IDs (TIN / VRN / KRA PIN), currency, fiscal year. Shows on invoices, receipts, and tax filings.

Step-by-Step Guide

1

Open Company Settings

Settings → Company.

2

Legal + Trading Names

Legal name is what your business is registered as (e.g. "Mwakwala Holdings Ltd"). Trading name is the brand customers see ("Mwakwala Hardware"). Both appear on receipts.

3

Address + Contact

Used on invoice headers, receipt footers, and tenant-domain email signatures.

4

Tax IDs

TIN (Tanzania), VRN if VAT-registered, KRA PIN (Kenya), TRA / KRA fiscal-device IDs if applicable. Required on tax invoices.

5

Fiscal Year

Most TZ/KE SMBs use January–December. Some industries (agri, hospitality) use July–June. Set once; affects period-end reports.

Tips & Best Practices

Tip: Get the legal name + tax IDs perfect on day one — every PDF invoice carries them, and re-issuing 6 months of invoices to fix a typo is painful.
