For farms
Farm records, done at the scale.
Snap the load slip at the elevator and the receipt at the co-op. PeaceBooks keeps the farm's records straight, so you can get back to the field.
Set up for farm work
Add a farm when you start (or next to your other businesses), and PeaceBooks sets it up for farming. The farm gets its own income, expenses and profit, like any business, and you can see it on its own or together with everything else.
Farm categories, ready to pick
Feed, seed, fertilizer, vet and medicine, custom work, fuel, repairs, grain sales and levies are right there when you save a receipt.
The right tax on farm inputs
Feed, seed and fertilizer usually have no GST/HST, and no PST for farmers. PeaceBooks sets them up that way, and you can change any receipt if yours is different.
Load slips from the elevator
Snap the slip at the scale. PeaceBooks reads the elevator, crop, weight, ticket number and price, and keeps a list of loads not paid yet, with what each elevator still owes you.
When the elevator pays
Tick the loads that were paid. PeaceBooks records the grain sale and the levies and checkoffs taken off, so it matches your bank. When a deposit matches the loads, it marks them paid for you.
Load slips are only for farms that sell grain to elevators. Dairy, livestock and other farms just leave them off.
Built for long days and poor signal
- No signal in the yard? Snap anyway. Receipts wait on your phone and send themselves when you're back in service.
- Hands full? Tap Say it and talk: “Bought 40 bags of mineral at the co-op, 680 dollars.” PeaceBooks turns it into an expense for you to check.
- Bought parts in the States? US receipts are turned into Canadian dollars at the Bank of Canada rate for that day.
- Truck and phone partly personal? Set the business share once, and every bill is split for you.
Hired help and the CRA
Pay a hired man or a seasonal worker by typing the full pay before tax. PeaceBooks works out what goes to them and what goes to the government with the CRA's own payroll formulas, tells you when the remittance is due, and makes the T4 figures at year-end.
A clean year for your accountant
At year-end, PeaceBooks makes one file with everything: the farm's income and expenses, the receipts with their photos, and a spreadsheet in the format your accountant uses. Your accountant can also sign in and look for themselves.
