Financial dashboard for dental practices in Brig-Glis: what every SME should know
Whether you run a Sàrl, an SA or a sole proprietorship in Brig-Glis, financial dashboard eventually lands on your desk. Here are the practical reference points — legal basis, deadlines and common pitfalls — to decide with a clear head.
The Swiss legal frame for financial dashboard
AHV audits and VAT audits follow the same logic: start from the documents, trace to the entries, check consistency. A business in Brig-Glis with a clean audit trail sails through these exercises.
One simple principle drives financial dashboard: every franc in or out must be explainable by a document, an entry and an account. All of Swiss accounting law fits inside that traceability requirement.
Outsource financial dashboard or keep it in-house?
Outsourcing financial dashboard to a fiduciary frees up time and secures compliance; keeping it in-house preserves a continuous view and costs less in fees. The best answer is often hybrid: the company captures and digitises as it goes, the fiduciary supervises, closes the books and represents the company before the authorities.
A business in Brig-Glis can combine the models: internal day-to-day entry, monthly external supervision, closing and taxes with the specialist — financial dashboard splits very well.
Digitalising financial dashboard: what actually works
The classic digitalisation traps are avoidable: scanning without quality control (unreadable records), stacking disconnected tools (double entry in disguise), or neglecting access rights. One single flow from document to entry, with clear roles, beats five shiny apps.
For an SME in Brig-Glis, the real gain of digitalised financial dashboard shows day to day: no paper pile at month-end, VAT prepared continuously, and an owner reading today's figures rather than last quarter's.
A Swiss SME's accounting calendar
January: salary declaration to the compensation office and salary certificates. End of February, May, August, November: quarterly VAT returns (effective method), each to be filed and paid within 60 days after the quarter ends. Within six months of year-end: approved annual accounts. Then: the tax return under cantonal deadlines, with extensions possible.
The useful reflex: date every obligation the moment it arises. An employee hired means AHV/LPP deadlines created; VAT registration means a filing cycle set; a closing date fixed means backward planning of the close. Well organised, the financial dashboard calendar fills itself.
Brig-Glis: what changes, what does not
Working with a fiduciary from Brig-Glis no longer depends on geography: the documents of a business in Brig-Glis are shared online, while the canton Valais keeps its own deadlines for the tax return.
Brig-Glis requires no special bookkeeping: the Code of Obligations applies at postal code 3900 as everywhere else, and a well-kept digital file transfers smoothly to any auditor in the canton.
Frequently asked questions
What is simplified bookkeeping and who can use it?
Sole proprietorships and partnerships under CHF 500,000 of revenue may limit themselves to recording income, expenses and assets (art. 957 para. 2 CO). Once over the threshold — or upon founding a Sàrl or an SA — full accounts with balance sheet, income statement and notes become mandatory. The CHF 500,000 threshold is assessed the same way in Brig-Glis.
Which documents should be prepared for the year-end closing?
Bank and cash statements at the closing date, the inventory of stock and work in progress, final AHV/LPP/accident settlements, contracts signed or amended during the year, invoices straddling two years and the detail of accruals. With an up-to-date document archive, most of it is already there. The list is identical in Brig-Glis: the CO dictates it, not the commune.
How long must records related to financial dashboard be kept?
Ten years from the end of the financial year concerned (art. 958f CO). Electronic retention is permitted if the integrity and readability of the records are guaranteed — a serious digital archive validly replaces paper binders. A business in Brig-Glis can therefore archive fully digitally.

Yes: the platform runs online, the rules applied are federal (VAT, CO, AHV), and the file can be shared with any fiduciary. A business in Brig-Glis manages its documents, VAT and exports exactly as anywhere in Switzerland.
