Your dashboard and Home: what each part means

The first screen after you sign in depends on your role:

• Owners, admins and accountants (anyone with Accounting) see the Dashboard, the financial overview described below.
• Everyone else sees a Home made for their work: HR, payroll, projects, sales or purchasing. See "Home for other roles" below.
• Employees with a portal-only login go straight to their Employee Portal.

The Dashboard shows the current month, for example "Financial overview for October 2026".

Quick actions

At the top right, Service Invoice and Bill start a new invoice or bill. They appear only if your role may create them. Everything else is in the menu on the left.

Needs your attention

A short list of what to look at today: overdue invoices, bills due within 7 days (or overdue), and any accounting check that did not pass last night. It says "Nothing needs attention right now" when you are up to date.

Books health check

Godo checks your books every night (for example, that the Balance Sheet balances). The dashboard shows the result of the last nightly check for the accounting checks, with what to review if something did not pass. Nothing is ever changed by the check.

Get started and filing reminders

• Get started: a setup checklist for new companies, shown to people who can open Settings.
• Filing Calendar: reminders for the forms you chose, shown when your calendar is set up and you have the Reports permission. See Set up the Filing Calendar.

The four counts

Customers, Vendors, Service Invoices and Bills show how many records you have in total.

Account Balance

Shows your active bank accounts and the total balance across them. View all opens the bank account list. See Add bank accounts, cash and e-wallets.

Financial Summary (current month)

For the current calendar month:

• Revenue: service invoice totals dated this month, plus other revenue entries that aren't voided.
• Expenses: bills dated this month plus posted expense records.
• Receivable: what customers still owe you on issued invoices. Drafts and voided invoices are left out.
• Payable: what you still owe on issued bills. Drafts and voided bills are left out.

Service Invoice Statistics

A breakdown of your invoices by paid, outstanding and overdue. An invoice is overdue when its due date has passed.

Recent lists

Recent Service Invoices and Recent Bills show the latest few with customer or vendor and amount.

Accounting Shortcuts

One-click links to Chart of Accounts, Journal, General Ledger and Reports.

Home for other roles

Each block appears only if your role has that permission:

• HR: requests waiting for your approval (leave, overtime, attendance corrections), today's attendance, headcount (including probationary), contracts waiting, and coming up (the next holidays, and birthdays and work anniversaries this month). Pay amounts are not shown here.
• Payroll: the open payroll period and the 13th month deadline.
• Projects: My projects with progress, My tasks (overdue first), tickets and leads assigned to you, and who is on leave today.
• Sales and purchasing: invoices not yet paid, collected today, bills to pay.

You never see your own leave or overtime in "waiting for your approval": nobody approves their own request.

My HR (staff who are also on payroll)

If your staff login is linked to your employee record, the menu shows My HR: Clock in & DTR, Leave, Payslips, 13th month and BIR 2316, with your own records only. Your Home also shows a clock-in card and your latest payslip. See Employee self-service.

Tip: If a dashboard number looks wrong, open the matching report for the same dates. See Everyday reports.
