Holvi integrates with Netvisor to help Finnish SMEs manage bookkeeping more efficiently. This guide explains how to set up and use both systems together, from initial setup to exporting data. For more information, see the in-depth guide here.
Note: Only users with the Creator or Admin role in Holvi can set up and manage these connections.
There are two main ways to use Holvi with Netvisor:
1. Netvisor as your main accounting system
Use Netvisor for all accounting tasks. Holvi automatically sends bank statement data to Netvisor.
2. Holvi + Netvisor integration
Use Holvi for day-to-day bookkeeping (categorisation, VAT, receipts), then export completed data to Netvisor.
