Cloud ERP that keeps your whole business in one ledger
Most businesses don't suffer from too little software — they suffer from too much: one tool for invoices, a spreadsheet for stock, a notebook for payroll, and an accountant reconciling all of it at month end. An ERP ends that reconciliation because data is entered once, at its source.
What actually makes a system integrated
Plenty of tools describe themselves as integrated and mean that one exports a file another imports. Real integration means a single transaction updates everything that depends on it in the same moment, with no human step in between.
One entry per document
An invoice, a stock issue, an expense and a salary each create a balanced journal entry against your trade's chart of accounts — not a draft you reconcile later.
Balances that are always current
The customer account, the warehouse, the cash box and the cost centre move together, so there are never two correct numbers for the same thing.
Reports that are always built
The trial balance and the profit and loss statement aren't reports you run — they're the state of the system at any moment you open it.
The modules that share the ledger
Sales and invoicing
Quotations, tax invoices, instalments and collection, and debtor ageing so you know who is late and by how long.
Inventory and purchasing
Multiple warehouses, receipt, issue and transfer notes, barcode stock counts, and a full purchase cycle from request for quotation to supplier invoice.
General ledger
Ready-made charts of accounts per trade, cost centres, fixed assets and depreciation, and an audit trail on every entry and user.
Point of sale
A register that completes and prints the sale offline then syncs automatically, with barcode, thermal printer and cash drawer per branch.
HR and payroll
Attendance, leave, advances and contracts, and a payroll run that computes deductions and taxes and posts them without a second entry.
Reports and analytics
Profit and loss, cash flow, product profitability and branch performance, comparable across branches and periods.
How you move onto it without stopping work
We take your books as they are
One file with your customers, products and opening balances is enough to start. We import it and reconcile it with you before you enter a single invoice.
You pick your trade
Hesbba prepares the chart of accounts, invoice templates and permissions that suit that trade, instead of you building them from scratch.
You run in parallel for a month
Most businesses run the new system alongside the old one until the first month closes and the trial balance comes out right. We stay with you until that point.
Common questions
What's the difference between an ERP and accounting software?
Accounting software records what happened: invoices, expenses, entries. An ERP runs what is happening — stock moves, purchases are raised, payroll is calculated — and the accounting falls out of that automatically rather than being a separate entry. If books are your only concern, accounting software is enough. If you run stock, branches or staff, the gap between the two is where most month-end errors come from.
Is an ERP overkill for a small business?
Size isn't the test — the number of places you enter the same data twice is. A five-person business with a warehouse and two branches gets more from it than a fifty-person firm selling one service. If you're copying figures from software into a spreadsheet, you're already paying for an ERP, in time rather than subscription.
How long does implementation take?
It depends on the state of your books far more than on the system. If your opening balances are ready in one file, setup is a matter of hours. If they're spread across several sources that disagree, the time goes into reconciling them — work that has to happen whichever system you pick.
Do I need a server or on-premise installation?
No. Hesbba is fully cloud-based and runs in the browser, with backups and updates included in the subscription. Only the point of sale keeps a local copy, so it can finish a sale when the network drops and sync afterwards.
Can I export my data if I decide to leave?
Yes. Export any record or report to Excel or CSV at any time, or pull your data through the API. No exit fees and no export limits.
