LedgerBarn is bookkeeping, invoicing, and payroll for farms and small businesses at one flat $49 a month, every employee included. Your clients get the QuickBooks Desktop words they know. You get your own login, the reports you close the year with, and every table as a spreadsheet whenever you want it.
Each client adds you as a user, Admin or Staff. The Audit Trail shows who changed what, and when, so your entries and theirs never blur.
General Ledger, Trial Balance (also as a spreadsheet), Profit & Loss in QuickBooks’ bands with prior-year columns, Balance Sheet on cash or accrual, A/R and A/P Aging, 1099 Summary, Payroll Summary. Print or PDF.
A balanced journal entry window for depreciation, accruals, and reclasses, beside a register your client already understands.
A federal + NC/VA/TX/FL/SD/MI engine verified to the cent against an independent reference. Forms 941, 940, 943, 943-A, Schedule B, W-2, and 1099-NEC filled on the IRS’s own PDFs; W-3, 1096, and NC-5 as worksheets; NACHA, EFW2, and 1099 upload files built. E-filing from LedgerBarn is coming soon; we’re working on it.
A Schedule F report, Form 943, the agricultural overtime and family-employee exemptions, and H-2A record-keeping, beside livestock, lots, fields, and equipment.
Download every table as spreadsheets plus the database itself. No export blocked behind an upgrade, and nothing held hostage if a client moves on.
We set you up with a sample set of books to poke at, with no client’s data in it.
Pick a client who is tired of their QuickBooks bill. We help with the cutover, including bringing QuickBooks Desktop history across.
You see more books in a month than most people see in a career. What you need is what gets built next.
The arrangement: 20% of what each client you send pays, for the client’s first year, paid to you monthly as they pay. Practices we have confirmed also get LedgerBarn free for their own books. Write to sales@ledgerbarn.com and say who you serve; a person reads every message.
Not yet. Today a client adds you as Admin or Staff, and the Audit Trail records everything each login does. A read-only role is on the list.
Not yet. Each client’s books are their own site with their own isolated database and login. If you run several clients on LedgerBarn, tell us how you would want them gathered together.
No. It fills the forms and builds the upload files, and shows when each deposit is due. You or your client submit them and record the payment. E-filing from LedgerBarn is coming soon; we’re working on it.
