Zetta Accounting keeps a real set of double-entry books and files them the way the Authority asks. A UAE chart of accounts, a VAT 201 split across the seven Emirates, and statements where every figure opens the document behind it.
A complete general ledger, the UAE tax return that comes out of it, and the statements an auditor or a bank will ask to see.
Standard-rated supplies split into boxes 1a–1g by Emirate, plus tourist refunds, reverse charge, zero-rated, exempt and imports. Recoverable input tax nets off to the payable figure at box 14.
Trial balance, profit and loss and balance sheet, each figure opening the ledger, the journal and finally the invoice or expense that created it.
Seeded ready to use with both Arabic and English names — VAT input and output, receivables, payables, retained earnings — and editable for your own business.
Sub-ledgers with ageing, so you can see what is owed to you and by whom, and what you owe, without leaving the books.
Expenses captured with their VAT so input tax is recovered in the right period, posted straight to the ledger and into the return.
Nothing is edited or deleted. A mistake is reversed by a balancing journal, periods lock once filed, and the whole audit trail keeps the value before and after.
The VAT 201 is something you work on and finish, not a report you print and retype into the portal.
Sales, purchases and expenses already in the system fill most of the form on their own, each box showing how many documents it came from.
Customs clearances, tourist refunds and prior-period corrections are typed in against the period and kept with it, with a note explaining each one.
An audit screen lists the documents behind every box, so the figures can be checked against source before anything is submitted.
Mark the period filed with its reference and the numbers freeze. Reopening it is a deliberate act, and the history of both stays.
Confirm current FTA guidance before go-live — this is a technical implementation, not tax advice.
Purchases, supplier balances and input tax, with receivables ageing you can act on.
Project costs and expenses captured against the period they belong to, not the month they were paid.
More than one company under one login, each with its own chart, periods and return.
The till posts into these same books — a sale becomes revenue, VAT and cost of goods in one transaction.
Every plan includes the full ledger, the VAT 201 return and the financial statements. The larger plans add companies and people. Prices exclude VAT.
Selling as well as bookkeeping? The suite plans carry both products on one subscription.
Yes, box by box. Standard-rated supplies are split across the seven Emirates into boxes 1a to 1g, with tourist refunds, reverse charge, zero-rated and exempt supplies, imports and recoverable input tax each in their own box, down to the payable figure. The boxes the software cannot derive — customs clearances, prior-period corrections — are typed in by the accountant and stored with the period, so reopening a return shows exactly the numbers that were filed.
Yes. Zetta Accounting is a product in its own right, with its own plans. A contractor, a trading company or an accountant keeping a client’s books never sees a till. If you later add Zetta POS, the sales post themselves into these same books.
Every figure drills down to the document behind it. A line in the profit and loss opens the general ledger, a ledger row opens the journal, and the journal names the invoice, purchase or expense that created it. Nothing in the books is a number somebody typed twice.
You correct it the way an auditor expects: nothing is edited or deleted. A wrong entry is reversed by a balancing journal, and both entries stay visible with who posted them and when. Periods can be locked once filed, and reopened deliberately if something has to change.
Yes. The chart of accounts ships with both names, and every screen, journal, statement and printed report exists in Arabic and in English, laid out right to left.
Yes. The accountant role sees the ledger, the statements, the VAT return and the sub-ledgers, and nothing else — no cost prices, no margins unless you grant them. Every action they take is in the audit trail with the value before and after.
Send us a trial balance and a quarter of invoices, and we will set up a workspace with your chart of accounts and your TRN so you can run the return on real figures.
