Why it fits here
Built for how business runs in Nigeria.
Flowyana is accounting software for Nigerian businesses that want the books kept as they trade rather than rebuilt at month end. Every sales invoice, supplier bill, expense, payroll run, and till settlement posts its own balanced entry with 7.5% VAT on its own ledger, so the trial balance, P&L, balance sheet, and tax summary are current every day. Bank reconciliation imports your bank statement and suggests matches.
Distribution is Nigeria’s backbone: goods imported, sold on credit terms, and moved between warehouses. Flowyana spreads freight and duty across received goods so stock carries its landed cost, tracks stock per warehouse with transfers, and shows AR aging per client so collection calls happen before the money goes cold.
From your postings, the standard tax return report gives taxable sales and output VAT, purchases and input VAT, exports, and the net for the month, with every figure opening to its documents. You or your accountant file the monthly return, then lock the period so nothing posts behind it.
Connectivity and power are uneven, so the POS is offline-first: it keeps selling and printing without a connection and sends every settlement to the books, with VAT split out, when the network returns. Flowyana does not submit invoices to the national e-invoicing platform. Books and documents are kept in naira; invoicing in several currencies is not available yet.
Compliance, stated plainly
E-invoicing and filing in Nigeria
VAT is 7.5%, and VAT returns are filed monthly. The Nigeria Tax Act 2025 took effect on 1 January 2026, and tax administration moved from the Federal Inland Revenue Service to the Nigeria Revenue Service. The national e-invoicing and e-reporting programme is phased by turnover: large taxpayers first, businesses with annual revenue between ₦1 billion and ₦5 billion from 1 July 2026, and smaller businesses slated for 2027.

What Flowyana does — and does not — claim
- Does: posts VAT to its own ledger on every sale, purchase, expense, and POS settlement; keeps a tax summary that agrees with the ledger; puts your TIN on every document; locks closed periods.
- Does not: claim certified integration with any e-invoicing or filing platform. Get any vendor’s status in writing before you buy — including ours — and let your accountant confirm what and when you must file.

Flowyana in Nigeria, answered.
Is Flowyana accounting software for Nigerian businesses?
Yes. It is full double-entry accounting: sales, purchases, expenses, payroll runs, and till sales post their own entries with VAT split, so the trial balance, P&L, and balance sheet are always current. Your accountant reviews rather than re-keys.
Is Nigerian VAT set up?
Yes. The Nigeria profile ships 7.5% standard and 0% zero-rated VAT with the TIN label for documents; tax posts to its own ledger on every sale, purchase, expense, and POS settlement.
Does it prepare the monthly VAT return?
It gives you a standard tax return report from your own postings: taxable sales, output VAT, purchases, input VAT, exports, and the net. Filing is done by you or your accountant.
Is Flowyana integrated with the national e-invoicing platform?
No. We do not claim integration, and Flowyana does not submit invoices to it. As of October 2026, phases reach smaller businesses from 2027; confirm any vendor’s status in writing before relying on it — including ours — and check your phase with your tax adviser.
Can a distributor track stock across several warehouses?
Yes. Each warehouse keeps its own stock, transfers show as in transit until received, freight and duty are spread across received goods, and AR aging shows who owes you.
Does the POS work without internet?
Yes. It keeps selling and printing offline and sends its sales to the books when the connection returns. The device itself still needs power.
Can we invoice in dollars?
Not yet. Books and documents are kept in one home currency, the naira. If you need to issue invoices in several currencies, tell us before you buy.
