END OF FINANCIAL YEAR INFORMATION FOR SALONS, SPAS AND CLINICS
Are you tired of the endless paperwork, calculations, and stress associated with the end of the financial year? With Kitomba Salon and Spa Software, you have everything you need to help you through this busy time. Here’s everything you need to know to make your end-of-financial year a breeze.
How to prepare for the end of financial year with confidence
At Kitomba, we understand that the end of financial year can be a stressful and busy time as you try to get on top of your finances while also running a business, taking care of your clients, and planning for the upcoming year.
Our salon and spa management software equips you with the tools and features you need to quickly collect all of the information you need to make your end of financial year a breeze.
Before you get started with your end of financial year reporting, make sure you:
Run all reports GST exclusive
For your end of financial year reporting, it’s important to enter all financial figures as GST exclusive. Luckily with Kitomba, all of our reports allow you to toggle between GST inclusive and exclusive.
Make sure you have your date range set correctly
The financial year differs between countries. Make sure you run all of your reports for the correct date range wherever you live.
New Zealand
The end of financial year in New Zealand is 1 April to 31 March the following year.
Australia
The end of financial year in Australia is 1 July to 30 June the following year.
United Kingdom
The end of financial year in the United Kingdom is 6 April to 5 April the following year.
Track your income and expenses with these reports
Efficiently monitor your salon, spa or clinic’s income and expenses with Kitomba’s powerful reporting.
Sales
Run your Business Summary Report in Kitomba or Kitomba 1 for the financial year period in your country to get the total value of sales for the year.
If you use the cash-based accounting method instead of accrual accounting, you’ll need to use the Payments Received report in Kitomba 1, or refer to the payments received line in the Cash Drawer Takings report in Kitomba.
Purchases
If you’ve been using stock management in Kitomba, your Supplier Invoices Report in Kitomba 1 or the Stock Movement Summary in Kitomba will tell you how much you have spent with product suppliers for the year.

Stock
The Stock Value Report in Kitomba and Kitomba 1 will tell you the value of the stock you have on hand.
Note for New Zealand customers: It is important to note the IRD does require a physical stock take to be completed on 31 March if the approximate stock value is over $10,000. If under $10,000, the Kitomba report is sufficient.
Money owed by clients
Running your Client Account Summary report in Kitomba will give you the balance of any outstanding client invoices in the “Accounts in Debit” section. Run this report for the last date of the financial year.
Cash
Cash on hand is another important asset that needs to be recorded on the last day of the financial year. This includes petty cash, and till floats, all of which need to be supplied to your accountant.
Expert tip: Did you know you can manage your petty cash in Kitomba? This allows you to track who is taking money out of the till, and for what reason, and it ensures that your end of day banking balances correctly.
