A step-by-step walkthrough of setting up your business instance on Obsidyun, from sign-up to choosing your plan.
7 min readStart by visiting app.obsidyun.com and creating a new account with your business email address, or log in if you already have one. We recommend enabling two-factor authentication for security.
From your dashboard, click the "Create New Business" card to begin the setup wizard. Choose a unique instance name and select your primary business location. You can manage multiple businesses from a single account.
The setup wizard walks you through entering your business details. This includes your legal business name, your role, your primary branch name, and the currency you operate in. All of these can be updated later.
Add the tax rates that apply to your business. You can add multiple tax rates (for example, standard VAT and a reduced rate) and assign them later when creating invoices or products. Tax rates can be edited or added at any time after setup.
Obsidyun uses a double-entry general ledger. You can import your existing chart of accounts from a CSV file, or use the default chart that Obsidyun generates for you. Required columns for import are Account Name, Account Type, Description, and Balance.
Optionally connect your business bank accounts by entering the bank name, account number, routing number, and opening balance. Finally, select a plan that fits your business. Every plan starts with a 30-day free trial with full access to all features.
