Output Books: Professional Accounting, Inventory & Invoicing Software

Output Books is a comprehensive accounting, inventory, and billing software solution available in both cloud-based and on-premise (self-hosted) deployment options . It is designed to help businesses manage their entire financial and operational workflow—from invoice generation and inventory control to multi-branch accounting and GST compliance—within a single, integrated platform.

Unlike subscription-based alternatives, Output Books offers a one-time payment model with lifetime usage, providing full ownership and control over business data . The software is particularly popular among retail stores, wholesale distributors, pharmacies, bakeries, and multi-location businesses seeking an affordable yet feature-rich ERP solution.

The software runs on a server-client architecture, where the core application is installed on a central server, and users can access it via desktop clients or mobile apps (iOS and Android) for on-the-go reporting and approvals
