Inside 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.
Officeguru connects businesses with office-service providers. Its story is a related example of client billing and group finance across Denmark and Germany.

What should your finance team know?
Can we report costs by client or project?
Configure custom properties for projects, clients or cost centres, then apply them to financial entries. Agree the reporting structure and any allocation method before importing the data.
Does Light replace time tracking or project management?
Light provides the financial foundation. Keep operational time tracking and delivery tools where needed, and scope their financial data exchange through the API.
Can office managers approve local spending?
Set bill approval rules by entity, amount, supplier or custom property. Local reviewers can take part in the workflow while group finance retains oversight.
