The company runs two entities, Denmark and Germany, and e-conomic was never built for either to talk to the other. Germany runs two VAT rates, 7% and 19%, and e-conomic can’t display a split rate on a single invoice, so Officeguru’s two-person finance team was correcting every German invoice by hand. Getting orders into the system in the first place meant a custom import app the team had built themselves, layered on top of e-conomic, a decades-old consolidation tool called Budget 123, and a separate tool for debt collection, a stack held together by hand as the business scaled across two countries.

Officeguru runs Denmark’s largest office management marketplace, connecting offices with the partners who clean them, feed them and keep them running: cleaning, lunch, coffee, handyman services and fruit. Bootstrapped and profitable in Denmark, the company is investing that profit into its German expansion, scaling toward 3x revenue growth without adding to its two-person finance team.

The Solution

One platform for Denmark and Germany

Light replaces e-conomic, Budget 123 and the custom import tooling with one platform built for multi-entity, multi-VAT operations:

  • Native VAT splitting on every German invoice.
  • Real consolidation across Denmark and Germany.
  • An open API that pulls orders in directly rather than through a bolted-together import chain.
Martin Holm, Group CFO/COO of Officeguru

“e-conomic couldn’t even put the right VAT on a German invoice, so I was splitting 7% and 19% by hand for every customer. We chose Light because it gives us one system that can handle Denmark and Germany without adding a single person to our finance team.”
