# Hitaji 360 — Accounting Documentation

> Welcome to the documentation for the Hitaji 360 Accounting module.

Welcome to the documentation for the Hitaji 360 **Accounting** module. Hitaji 360 is a
multi-tenant, multi-business platform: every business you operate keeps its own isolated
set of accounts, transactions, and reports inside its own **accounting book**, while you
manage them all from a single login by switching the active business.

This documentation is split into two parallel sets, depending on who you are.

## 📘 [User Guide](/accounting/user/index)

For **accountants, bookkeepers, finance managers, and business owners** who use the
accounting module day to day. Task-oriented, written around the screens and buttons you
actually click. Covers everything from setting up your chart of accounts to closing the
financial year.

Start here: **[User Guide → Getting Started](/accounting/user/getting-started/overview)**

## 🛠️ [Developer Guide](/accounting/developer/index)

For **engineers** extending or maintaining the accounting service. Covers the data model,
the posting engine, the accounting bridge that lets HR / payroll / SACCO post into the
ledger, multi-tenancy enforcement, financial-report internals, and the API surface.
