# Kompass

- [Kompass guides](https://docs.trykompass.com/index.md): Set up Kompass, run your budget and track it against actuals.
- [Bring in your actuals](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/bring-in-your-actuals.md): Connect your accounting system once, and actuals arrive on a schedule without anyone exporting anything.
- [Map your chart of accounts](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/map-your-chart-of-accounts.md): Match each account in your ledger to a budget line, so actuals land where your plan expects them.
- [Set up dimensions](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/set-up-dimensions.md): Add the departments, regions or cost centres you plan and report by, and connect them to your accounting system.
- [Upload an existing Excel budget](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/upload-an-existing-excel-budget.md): Kompass reads the workbook you already have. There is no template to conform to.
- [Map your budget](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/map-your-budget.md): Point every budget line at an account in your chart of accounts, starting with Auto-map and finishing by hand.
- [Finish and approve your budget](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/finish-and-approve-your-budget.md): Set dimensions on each line, clear the unmapped count on every tab, then activate and approve.
- [Assign sheets and approve budgets](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/assign-sheets-and-approve-budgets.md): Hand each department its own sheet with a due date, then approve what comes back or send it back with a note.
- [Track budget vs actuals](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/track-budget-vs-actuals.md): Set the view, read the variance, get explanations from the people who own the lines, and use AI insights as a first draft.
- [Run your annual budget](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/run-your-annual-budget.md): From an empty workspace to an approved budget your whole team tracks against, in the order Kompass expects.
- [Forecast with projections](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/forecast-with-projections.md): Project your history three to five years ahead, then try what-ifs against a base case.
- [Build a dashboard for leadership](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/build-a-dashboard-for-leadership.md): Dashboards are grouped by audience. Give each one a single audience, then build, share and maintain it.
- [Filling in a sheet](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/filling-in-a-sheet.md): Enter your department's numbers, check the totals, and submit the sheet for review.
- [Ask Co-Pilot](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/ask-co-pilot.md): Ask questions about the numbers in front of you, in plain language, and know when it cannot answer.
- [How Kompass fits together](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/how-kompass-fits-together.md): What to have ready, how the app is laid out, and the order to do things in the first time.
- [Budget statuses](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/budget-statuses.md): What Draft, In Review, Approved and Archived mean, and what the unmapped count tells you.
- [Common questions](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/common-questions.md): Where to look when variance looks wrong, actuals stop updating, or your system is not listed.
- [Roles and permissions](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/roles-and-permissions.md): What each role can see and do, how to give someone access to one budget, and how to limit what a person sees.
- [FP&A glossary](https://docs.trykompass.com/guides/fpa-glossary.md): The planning and accounting terms Kompass uses, in plain language.
- [What's new](https://docs.trykompass.com/whats-new.md): What changed in Kompass, newest first.
