Navigating on Mobile
LedgerBuk is fully responsive and works on phones and tablets. Here’s how the interface adapts to smaller screens.
Sidebar Navigation
Section titled “Sidebar Navigation”On mobile, the sidebar is hidden by default. Tap the menu icon (☰) in the top-left corner to open it as a slide-out drawer.
The drawer contains the same navigation items as the desktop sidebar:
- Dashboard
- Journal Entries
- Reports (Trial Balance, Balance Sheet, Profit & Loss)
- Fiscal Periods
- Chart of Accounts
- Team
- Activity
- Settings (General, Profile)
Tap any item to navigate, and the drawer closes automatically.
Dashboard on Mobile
Section titled “Dashboard on Mobile”The dashboard cards stack vertically on mobile:
- Book Health — Net profit/loss and cash position
- P&L Summary — Revenue and expenses for the current month
- P&L Bar Chart — Six-month trend visualization
- Recent Entries — Latest journal entries
- Quick Actions — Shortcut buttons for common tasks
Tables and Lists
Section titled “Tables and Lists”On smaller screens, data tables adapt in two ways:
- Journal Entries — Entries display as compact cards instead of a full table, showing the key details (date, description, amount, status) in a stacked layout
- Reports — Tables remain scrollable horizontally. Swipe left/right to see all columns
Form layouts stack vertically on mobile. Fields that appear side-by-side on desktop (like debit/credit columns in journal entries) stack into a single column.
Date Pickers
Section titled “Date Pickers”Calendar date pickers open as a popover that fits the screen width. Use the month/year selectors at the top to quickly navigate to the desired date.
Printing Reports
Section titled “Printing Reports”The Print button on report pages works on mobile browsers. Reports are formatted for clean printing with navigation elements hidden automatically.
Screen Size Support
Section titled “Screen Size Support”| Device | Min Width | Layout |
|---|---|---|
| Phone | 320px | Single column, stacked cards |
| Small tablet | 640px | Slightly wider cards, some side-by-side elements |
| Tablet | 768px | Two-column layouts, wider tables |
| Desktop | 1024px+ | Full sidebar, multi-column grids |
