What changed
The result first, then how we got there. Numbers you can trace to a source — not adjectives.
The challengeالتحدّي
The problem we came to solve
Most of what is sold in this region as an «accounting system» is a pretty interface over a spreadsheet: unbalanced entries pass, one client's data shows up for another, and Arabic is a translation laid over a Latin template.
- No unbalanced entry passes — no in-between state, no fixing it later
- Multi-tenant data isolation on three independent layers
- Behaviour that changes entirely by country pack: currency, tax, zakat, weekend, end of service
- Reading invoices with the camera and proposing a balanced entry for human approval
Approachالمقاربة
What we decided — and why
The accounting core first
A hierarchical chart of accounts, a ledger per account, upward balance aggregation with the correct sign, and posted journal entries with a full audit trail. The core was built and tested before any screen.
Isolation on three layers
A permission guard on the route, a storage layer scoped to the entity, and row-level security policies inside PostgreSQL itself — defence in depth that does not rest on one layer.
Scan the invoice, take the entry
A document box reads photographs of invoices and receipts — uploaded or from the camera — extracts the fields and proposes a balanced entry. Approval is always human.
The financial decision room
A financial health indicator, early alerts, a cash-flow forecast and «what if» simulation before the decision — built on the real numbers, not on estimates.
Solutionالحل
What was actually delivered
TypeScript end to end with contracts shared between client and server, PostgreSQL with Drizzle and exported reviewable migrations, schema validation on every request, and automated tests covering the critical accounting paths. The interface is natively right-to-left with tuned Arabic typography and tabular numerals.
