Computer scientist

Discover a new dimension in accounting with Seewara, customised for you as a Computer scientist with mandatory accounting – without do-it-yourself software and without sole dependence on artificial intelligence.

Simple bookkeeping for businesses and the self-employed

Do you understand your accounting requirements? With Seewara, we offer a simple, transparent solution for businesses and the self-employed who want to keep track of their finances.

Who counts as a commercial enterprise?
Commercial enterprises include all companies that do not fall under the category of freelancers according to §18 EStG. This includes, for example, all commercial activities that are not exempt from the accounting obligation by law. Typical commercial enterprises are, for example, trading companies, craft businesses or limited liability companies (e.g. GmbH) that are either voluntarily or legally entered in the commercial register.

Limits for simple bookkeeping
Certain limits apply to commercial enterprises that are not required to keep accounts:

  • Turnover limit: 800,000 euros
  • Profit limit: 80,000 euros
    If your business does not exceed these limits, you can use the simplified income statement (EÜR) instead of complex double-entry bookkeeping.

Self-employed persons according to Section 18 EStG
Self-employed persons who work in one of the catalogue professions are also affected by special regulations. The catalogue professions include, among others:

  • Artistic activities
  • Scientific activities
  • Teaching and writing activities
  • Educational activities
    These professions are mentioned in the exhaustive list of §18 EStG and are considered to be self-employed regardless of the level of income.

Less bureaucracy, more freedom
Whether you are a tradesperson or self-employed – with our simple accounting solution, you can keep track of everything and save yourself unnecessary bureaucracy. Get in touch with us to customise your bookkeeping to your needs!

What do you actually do as a Computer scientist?

  1. Software development: Computer scientists design, code and test software applications, including desktop and web applications, mobile apps and systems for businesses.
  2. System administration: They manage and configure computer systems, networks and servers to ensure they operate efficiently and securely.
  3. Database management: Computer scientists design and manage databases, including the organisation and storage of data and the optimisation of queries and data access.
  4. IT security: They implement security protocols and measures to protect computer systems and networks from threats and attacks.
  5. Network design and management: Computer scientists plan and implement network infrastructures, including the configuration of routers, switches and other network devices.
  6. Technical support: They provide support and training to users of computer systems and software to solve technical problems and optimise usage.
  7. Research and development: Computer scientists work on new technologies, algorithms and methods to develop innovative solutions to complex problems.
  8. Analysing requirements: They analyse the needs of users and organisations in order to develop customised software solutions or systems.
  9. Documentation: Computer scientists create technical documentation, user documentation and training materials for software and systems.
  10. Collaboration: They often work in teams with other professionals, including designers, project managers and engineers, to successfully complete projects.
