Accessories

Grow without touching the core.

An accessory is a plug-in module that extends Accessory Accounting. It's a self-contained .accdb file — data, forms, and code — that slots into the main application. Need a new integration? Ask the AI to build one. Don't like how it works? Open it up and change it.

Why accessories exist.

Most accounting systems lock their extensibility behind an app marketplace — you pay the main vendor, you pay the integration vendor, and neither of them can make changes for you. Accessory flips that model.

The main application is the stable, audited, production-tested core. Accessories are the flexible surface that touches the outside world. When you need new behavior, it goes in a new accessory — never in the core.

What you can do with them.

Import data from any source with its own format
Connect to banks, payment processors, e-commerce platforms
Add industry-specific workflows (job costing, POS, rentals)
Build reports or dashboards that the core doesn't have
Integrate with Microsoft Office apps for custom documents
Expose your own data to external tools, securely

Included with every purchase

Accessory #1 — The Data Import Framework.

A customizable ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tool that reads external data and maps it into the accounting engine. Use it for bank downloads, payment processor exports, CSV files from vendors, e-commerce reports — anything with a tabular structure.

The source is exposed. You (or the AI) can edit the field mappings, validation rules, and import logic directly. There's no black box. It's the same Access that the rest of the application is built with.

CSV, Excel, TSV, fixed-width, OFX, QBO formats out of the box
Field-mapping UI with preview and validation
Rule engine for categorization, splits, and matching
Duplicate detection and safe-reimport protection
Editable in Access — no recompilation, no deployment

AI-generated accessories

Need something new? Ask for it.

The AI has a dedicated code-generation model (Qwen Coder 32B) that writes VBA and builds new accessory files on request. Tell it what you need; it produces a working .accdb that slots into the application.

YouI need to import sales from my Square account every morning.
AII can build a Square Sales accessory. It'll pull the daily summary from your Square CSV export, map Square categories to your accounting categories, and post the net sales, taxes, and fees to the right accounts.

Do you already download the Square CSV yourself, or do you want me to connect directly to the Square API?

Common accessories we've seen built.

None of these are required. They're examples of what the AI generates when customers ask. Yours will be tailored to exactly what you need.

Bank Feed Importer

Plaid, OFX, or CSV. Pulls daily transactions, matches to existing entries, flags the rest for review.

Payment Processors

Stripe, Square, PayPal, Venmo, Zelle. Fees, refunds, and disputes handled correctly.

E-commerce Sync

Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, Etsy. Daily sales, tax, fees, and shipping broken out by channel.

Point of Sale

A register front-end that syncs back to the home office. Cash drawer, receipt printing, barcode scanning.

Payroll Connector

Bridges to Gusto, ADP, or Paychex for journal entries and 941 data. Or use the built-in Payroll module.

Expense Scanner

Mobile receipt capture. OCR extracts vendor, amount, date, and the AI categorizes.

Job Costing

Time, materials, and subcontractor costs tracked per job. Real-time gross margin.

Custom Invoice Templates

Branded, Word-powered invoice layouts with logos, terms, and custom line-item formats.

Anything Else

Ask the AI. If it's tabular, computational, or a document workflow, it can probably build it.

Under the hood

Clean separation. Safe updates. No scary deploys.

What's a .accdb?: A Microsoft Access database file. It can contain tables, forms, reports, queries, and VBA code. Accessories are compiled or uncompiled .accdb files depending on whether the source is meant to be exposed.
How does it slot in?: The main application exposes a documented API surface — functions for posting entries, fetching accounts, raising events. Accessories call that surface. The core never depends on any accessory.
What if an accessory breaks?: Nothing breaks downstream. The accessory fails in its own sandbox; the core continues to run. Remove the accessory and you're back to a clean system.
Can I edit accessories myself?: Yes. Open the .accdb file in Microsoft Access and you have the full VBA IDE, table designer, report designer. The ETL accessory ships with its source exposed for exactly this reason.
Do AI-generated accessories cost extra?: No. As long as your AI service is active (included free the first year, $99/year after), the AI will generate accessories on request at no additional charge for normal use.

Built for your business. Literally.

Every business has at least one workflow no off-the-shelf software handles. Accessories are how you get it handled.
