This short walkthrough shows the live workspace shape: account access, business branding, dashboard visibility, support flow, and the operating frame users enter after launch.

Product journey

From setup to PDF without leaving the workspace.

OWK Ledger should be understood as a guided operating flow, not a loose collection of forms.

01

Set up company

Enter the business identity, contact details, banking details, and document defaults once.

02

Add records

Create saved clients for quote and invoice work, or employees for Premium HR output.

03

Prepare document

Build quotes, invoices, payslips, or employment letters using the active workspace data.

04

Review output

Check totals, VAT, client details, employee details, and the selected document identity before export.

05

Export PDF

Generate a professional PDF and continue operating from the same workspace.

Core modules

The core layers behind the workspace.

OWK Ledger combines document generation with client records, tier-based access, Premium HR workflows, and flexible distribution for SME teams.

Document flow

Quote and invoice generation

Create document-ready quotes and invoices with client data, service lines, business identity, VAT, and PDF output.

Local finance

SA VAT and plan structure

Apply the 15% South African VAT rate to document totals and choose a workspace tier suited to the business.

Premium layer

HR document engine

Premium workspaces add employee records, payslip PDF generation, employment letters, leave counters, and watermark controls.

Differentiators

Built for more than document output.

These are the capabilities that move OWK Ledger out of the simple invoice-tool category.

Operational branding

Branded document control, logo and watermark support, and a product identity that makes SME output feel more deliberate.

Differentiator

Plan-based access

Free, Basic, and Premium tiers provide different client capacity, document usage, branding, and HR features.

Installable access

Use OWK Ledger in a browser or through its supported installable experience across compatible devices.

Trust and responsibility

Clear boundaries before business data enters the workspace.

OWK Ledger is built for practical document operations. It keeps responsibilities visible so users understand what the product supports and what remains under business control.

Workspace ownershipEach account operates as its own business workspace with saved business, client, employee, and document information.
Responsible document useGenerated output depends on user-entered data and must be checked before issue, especially for VAT and HR details.
Defined data useOWK Ledger processes information for account, document, billing, support, and operational purposes described in the public policies.
Human escalationSupport remains available for billing checks, Enterprise capacity requests, and account access issues.

Choose by operational need

Accounting suitesMay suit businesses that need deeper bookkeeping, reporting, reconciliation, and accountant-led workflows.
Payroll systemsMay suit businesses that need statutory payroll calculations, filings, and payroll compliance automation.

Common questions

Know the boundary before you start.

Is OWK Ledger an accounting system?

No. OWK Ledger helps prepare business documents and manage workspace records. It does not replace accounting, tax, payroll, legal, or compliance professionals.

Can I use OWK Ledger for free?

Yes. The Free Tier is designed for evaluation and limited early use with defined client and document limits.

Does OWK Ledger calculate South African VAT?

It can present the 15% South African VAT rate in quotes and invoices when enabled, but the business must still check whether VAT applies to its own situation.

Does Premium replace payroll software?

No. Premium adds employee records, payslip PDFs, and employment letters. It does not calculate or submit PAYE, UIF, tax returns, or statutory payroll filings.

Can OWK Ledger be installed on mobile?

It is a Progressive Web App. Supported devices and browsers can install it, while iOS users use Safari's Add to Home Screen path.

What if Premium is not enough?

Premium users who outgrow the current limits can contact support to discuss an arranged Enterprise layer.

Start safely

Open the Free Tier first, then upgrade when the workspace proves useful.

Use the product with real operating care: enter accurate information, review generated documents, and contact support when account or capacity questions arise.
