Managing a housing society’s finances takes more than a few Excel sheets and manual approvals. Between maintenance billing, expense tracking, collections, and audits, the workload on treasurers and management committees has grown significantly. That’s why most RWAs today are turning to dedicated society accounting software to automate and streamline everything.
The right software doesn’t just record transactions. It helps the committee run the society like a well-organized business, with clear visibility, real-time updates, and full compliance.
What makes a good society accounting software
Purpose-built for RWAs
Generic accounting systems rarely work well for housing societies. A good solution should handle the unique structure of RWAs recurring maintenance invoices, corpus fund tracking, late fee calculations, and multi-building accounting.
Automated billing and reconciliation
The software should automatically generate monthly invoices, track online and offline payments, and reconcile them instantly. This ensures there are no gaps between what’s billed and what’s collected.
Expense and vendor control
Committees need control over approvals and visibility into vendor payments. The system should allow digital bill submissions, approval workflows, and detailed expense logs to prevent mismanagement.
Comprehensive financial reports
Transparency matters in every society. The platform should generate audit-ready reports like income-expenditure statements, balance sheets, and defaulter lists without manual compilation.
Resident access and Communication
Residents should be able to view invoices, payment history, and receipts through the same app cutting down on emails and confusion.
