What Lexpro Accounting is
Lexpro Accounting is web-based accounting software for lawyers and legal practices in South Africa. It keeps trust and business activity on client and general ledger accounts, automates transfers between them, and supports Section 86 investment imports, interest automation, bank charge processing, and reporting. Banking tools include statement imports, cash books, and reconciliations; VAT processing and reporting are also built in. Reports include trust and business trial balances, auditor reports, cash flow statements, and age analyses, with auditor reports available in PDF and Excel. Files and transactions can be imported from other Lexpro modules and spreadsheets. Auditors can access source documents saved to ledger entries, while the auditor prepares the final report in its required format. The browser-based service requires no server installation and is described as accessible from any device and location. Lexpro says its databases are not accessible from the internet, server communications are encrypted, and it is bound by POPIA. Pricing is on request; Lexpro describes month-to-month customer relationships without long-term contracts.
