Structure your legal accounting data with flexible nominal codes built directly into your case management system.
Hoowla allows law firms to create and manage custom nominal codes across client and office accounting, helping you categorise financial activity, improve reporting accuracy, and maintain a clear view of your firm’s finances.
Hoowla’s nominal code functionality is integrated directly into your legal accounting records, meaning every transaction can be categorised as it is recorded.
Nominal codes can be created and customised to reflect how your firm manages its accounts, allowing you to organise transactions across categories such as income, expenses, and assets.
Because nominal codes sit within the same system as your client and office ledgers, they are applied consistently across your accounting data, without the need for external tools or manual reclassification.
Standard accounting setups often force firms into fixed nominal structures that don’t reflect how they actually operate.
When nominal coding sits outside your case or ledger data, it becomes harder to maintain consistency across transactions, reports, and reconciliations.
Reworking transactions into the correct categories after the fact adds time and increases the risk of errors.
Hoowla gives you the ability to define your own nominal structure, so your accounting reflects how your firm works, not the other way around.
Create nominal codes based on your firm’s accounting requirements, including categories for revenue, expenses, and assets.
Apply nominal codes to accounting entries as they are recorded, ensuring every transaction is categorised correctly from the start.
Nominal codes work across both client and office ledgers, supporting structured accounting records while maintaining clear separation of funds.
Firms can tailor nominal codes to match internal reporting preferences, making it easier to analyse financial data in a way that suits their business.
Using nominal codes within Hoowla improves the quality and clarity of your financial reporting.
Because transactions are categorised consistently, your reports provide a clearer picture of your firm’s financial position and performance.

Most accounting systems treat nominal codes as a static chart that sits outside your day-to-day work.
Hoowla takes a different approach.
Nominal codes are part of your everyday accounting workflow, applied at the point of entry, aligned with your ledgers, and reflected automatically in your reporting.
